It's Friday!!!!

[McRib]

I heard it's dead. At least, god I hope it is. They had a bad idea at best, and got people on board with it, even the UP. But I don't think the BNSF ever really came their way too much, and I'm pretty sure the idea has been scrapped. Now watch, next week they will announce they are starting service in January.

Amtrak discontinued the desert wind in 97. It served vegas till amtrak went on a cost cutting rampage. The track is still there but inundated with freight trains that have priority. Id imagine the amtrak ride being long due to them having zero priority on both UP and BNSF's lines
