I got the lucky chance to ride Amtrak’s Keystone Service from Philly to New York and I have to say I am in love. This is just about the best of what Amtrak could be doing everywhere and it is criminal we are not doing this for more American cities
We really need to nationalize the rail network, and give Amtrak a budget to rival the US military

If Amtrak was as great as it used to be today I could be happy but not like this
Side note. Instead of "cog in the wheel" we should start saying "car on the highway". For funsies
