Boston! A new maintenance facility is on its way.

The Southampton Yard maintenance facility just reached a key milestone with a full, steel topping now complete.

The facility will serve Amtrak's new Airo fleet when they launch on the Northeast Regional next year.

@FencelineWatch @backboneprog @SolutionaryRail Comments on the UP-NS rail merger are due Nov 18. We’re urging members to tell the STB it isn’t in the public interest. It takes minutes and can be anonymous: https://t.co/JjoRyRutjQ

This problem cannot be solved by the STB. We need Congressional action to extricate ourselves from the current rail paradigm. Even the best CEO is constrained by private equity activists. Rail is a solution hiding in plain sight, but its public purpose has been hijacked by greed.
