The FRA is also insisting that the new tunnel be able to accommodate double-stack trains.I do not think that is an unreasonable request. If they can build these new gateway tunnels to the same height, perhaps we can get high-level boarding versions of the roomy Superliners for NE Amtrak travel. The only functional reason Amtrak can't go with NJT MultiLevels is the overhead racks are too small. |
