From the Star-Telegram 9/22:
QUOTE Congress to soon decide on Amtrak By Gordon Dickson Star-Telegram Staff Writer On a trip aboard the Sunset Limited, Amtrak President David Gunn was once stranded in the remote West Texas city of Alpine. A derailed freight train was blocking the tracks between Alpine and El Paso, so the Sunset Limited stopped in Alpine. Gunn and the other passengers were transferred to charter buses to finish the journey. "Do you know how important Amtrak is in Alpine? In the middle of the desert, the mayor of Alpine was there at the station, helping us unload the train," Gunn said recently. Full article here. -------------------- Regards, HaRRy, San Diego
