>>1050512Completely scrap most of the Genesis fleet and replace them with the Charger as well us start/convince the railroad companies who own the rails to upgrading the track little by little so it cab run close to its max speed of 125 mph.
I know its not true high speed rail and we won't have one for a long time but to be honest we probably don't absolute need one
since speed while has some appeal to it isn't the most important aspect, comfort
Case and point if speed was the most important, why did the Concord a 3 hour flight across the Atlantic ultimately fail when pit up against the normal 7 hour flight.
Amtrak will need to to get faster no doubt so its a far better option than driving or taking a greyhound like bus survive (maybe even in some limited cases even airlines) but it doesn't have to be speeds of 200+ mph for now and could probably get a decent amount more travelers if they did things like: Built in wifi and usb/normal charging outlets, decent on train food that doesn't cost an arm or a leg to buy, a decent rolling that is somewhat nice to look at (which is why they should retire the genesis), and a couple other odds and ends
