Wherever people gather online to discuss passenger trains, debate tends to degrade over time as emotion supplants fact. This blog is an attempt to promote informed discussion about U.S. passenger railroading by fact-checking anti-Amtrak claims and by placing passenger-train issues in a broader context. Comments are welcome, but they are moderated.
