WREX-TV, Channel 13 in Rockford, IL, 3/25/15:
Amtrak waiting on the state; won't declare Rockford project dead
Without state funding, an Amtrak official tells 13 News it will not be able to bring service to Rockford.
This comes on the heels of a statement last week by the head of IDOT who says funding is still up in the air.
Today in Springfield, State Rep. John Cabello pressed an Amtrak official for a more definitive answer.
