Coalition for the Northeast Corridor is thrilled with the announcement of $8.2 billion for ten passenger rail projects across the country through FRA's Federal State Partnership for Intercity Passenger Rail Program. Investments in reliable, expanded train service across the country are crucial in advancing the interconnectivity of U.S. passenger travel by rail. The investments include expansions to the Pennsylvania Keystone Corridor and improving the connections between the Southeast and Northeast corridor. These rail improvements including high-speed investments will help to augment the U.S. passenger rail system as a whole and are a win for rail passengers both in the Northeast and across the U.S.

Certainly big news & a long time coming. The question is why just 10 projects? Other regional projects get put aside - why again? Simple reason - no funding w/o increasing the deficit even more. Isn’t time to fall back on a proven model for funding infrastructure project? It is! HR 4052, the creation of the Nation’s fifth National Infrastructure Bank. The time has come to get all infrastructure projects done. Check out nibcoalition.com. #nationalinfrastructurebank

It is hard to understate what this means for the country. Expected impact: decarbonizing travel, changing the image of rail travel, changing travel experience, boosting employment, setting an important precedent, accelerating pace of rail technology development, and more overhead catenary in California (and Nevada) for freight operators to look at and ponder. #transformtheeveryday #decarbonisation #highspeedrail
We applaud President Biden, Secretary Pete Buttigieg, The White House and the U.S. Department of Transportation for awarding today’s grants and continuing the commitment to investing in passenger rail. Brightline West Trains and California High-Speed Rail Authority will transform the way Americans’ travel. Today is a historic moment for rail in America and on behalf of the 40,000 Siemens team members in the U.S. we applaud this important milestone.

🚄 “The Future of High-Speed Rail is Now." ~Amtrak's Andy Byford Our latest video on high-speed rail features Amtrak President Roger Harris and Senior Vice President of High-Speed Rail Andy Byford discussing the future of high-speed rail at Amtrak. We explore what it will take to expand high-speed rail to other corridors across the United States and answer the biggest questions: Why is it so hard to get high-speed rail across the U.S.? And where do we see HSR next? Did you watch the video? Let us know in the comments which two cities Roger and Andy discussed as Amtrak’s primary focus for future high-speed rail. And let us know on a scale of 1-10 how excited you are for high-speed rail in America. #Amtrak #hsr #sustainability #train

Group Head of Strategic Relationships (Rail) for BES Group and Chairman of the London and South RIA Leadership group
Well... as the sun rises on a new dawn and a new government, i guess we wait and see what The Labour Party plans to implement in its first 100 days. congrats to the party and Stephen Morgan from a #rail perspective, i think the priorities published by Railway Industry Association in their recent manifesto 👇🏼 should be somewhere top of the list: 1️⃣ Publish a long-term rail strategy; 2️⃣ Deliver on industry reform; 3️⃣ Accelerate new train orders and low carbon network upgrades; 4️⃣ Support a sustainable supply chain; and 5️⃣ Leverage private investment.
