Railpax trims routes leaving six states without rail service
Railpax announces a revised national route map reducing passenger service by half. The plan leaves Maine, New Hampshire, Vermont, South Dakota, Arkansas, and Wyoming without rail, with many states reduced to single daily trains and major routes cut. About forty percent of rail passenger jobs may disappear as four cross country routes and several north south corridors are prioritized. Critics question if improved service and timing could have attracted more travelers.
