Letters: More people are traveling by rail. Upgrading Amtrak in region makes good sense.

Regarding the article, “Nearly $73M is coming for Amtrak.” I just returned from an Amtrak trip from Chicago to Flagstaff, Arizona.

I had never been on a train that long. The staff were awesome. But when we had to get our connecting train from Chicago to Milwaukee, it was delayed because of a mechanical repair.

More and more people take trains for long trips and day trips. This injection of money will certainly go a long way to keep this vital transportation running now and for the future.
