QUOTE As the aviation industry announces their intention to cut 30,000 jobs in the wake of rapidly rising jet fuel prices, U.S. Senator Dick Durbin (D-IL) today introduced legislation that would create jobs and help Amtrak meet the increasing demand for an efficient, cost-effective and reliable alternative mode of travel. Durbin’s bill aims to promote the replacement and rehabilitation of Amtrak’s aging fleet of passenger cars and to revive the train car industry in the United States. Story is here. -------------------- Kevin Korell OTOL Board Leader Howell, NJ |
