Amtrak

Amtrak was included in the $1.7 billion vision to bring transit options together in a central location connected to MIA. Why it decided against bringing its trains to the MIC exchange after over 15 years of planning, even after millions were spent in adaptations specifically for them, has not been clear.

Three people from the Amtrak train were killed in addition to one person in the dump truck, authorities said.

The westbound train, Empire Builder, was on its way from Chicago to Seattle when it left the tracks Saturday after near Joplin, Mont., killing three people.

"You and your family could travel coast to coast without a single tank of gas onboard a high-speed train," President Biden said. The map shows 30 new routes across the U.S. that funding could create.
