A couple of observations: 1) The TIGER grant buys time for the political climate in New Mexico to change. 2) It seems pretty clear that Amtrak wants to keep the SWC where it is, especially if it stays going through Kansas. I don't think Amtrak wants the train to wander and weave through the...

Seth Moulton defeated Rep. John Tierney in Tuesday's Democratic primary in Massachusetts. What in the heck does that have to do with the Texas Central? :blink: According to his biography, this former Marine, after serving in Iraq,: That's what. -_-
