Wouldn’t it be better to run more frequent shuttle trains between those underserved communities connecting them to major cities where they can take a plane or train from than running a 43 hour train that probably runs once a day?

The reason why Amtrak is great in the Northeast Corridor and so mediocre everywhere else is because the Class Is own the tracks and control all of the traffic flow. Amtrak would run more trains tomorrow if they could. https://www.railwayage.com/regulatory/amtrak-eyes-stb-investigation-into-substandard-sunset-limited-service/ https://www.railwayage.com/regulatory/amtrak-eyes-stb-invest...
