URGENT ALARM FOR TRAIN TRAVELERS

Dear Train Traveler,

Congressional budget allocates $2 billion to Amtrak, earmarking $1.3 billion for the long-distance network! Sounds like good news, doesn't it?

Then why is Amtrak’s new president eliminating amenities for Amtrak's sleeping car passengers?

• No more dining cars.
• No hot meals.
• No first class lounge cars.
• No discounts.
• No morning newspapers.
• No scenic routing through the Rocky Mountains.
• Three days a week service.

Worried? Pick up your phone and call your Senators and Representatives. (You will find phone numbers either online or from the Reference Desk at your library.)

They intended to improve long distance Amtrak trains.

They need to know about this!

Sincerely,

Ted and Sylvia Blishak
