Amtrak wins approval to mortgage Penn Station assets
Amtrak gains permission to use parts of New York's Penn Station as collateral for a 300 million loan to cover operating costs through September. The move requires a new lien ahead of existing federal claims, with two Penn Station concourses pledged while tunnels and other tracks remain excluded. President George Warrington said self sufficiency remains achievable despite a 2003 subsidy deadline.
