Hotline #1,432
March 13, 2026
A bit of a slow news week (at least in the passenger rail advocacy world), but #HotlineFriday rolls on. We cover a strategy reset for CAHSR, take a look overseas with the reopening of a line between China & NK, and let you know about a chance to tour the restored Michigan Central Station in the Motor City. Plus all that's fit to print. See you onboard! Highball!

Get on track with this week's rail passengers news
"I wish to extend my appreciation to members of the Rail Passengers Association for their steadfast advocacy to protect not only the Southwest Chief, but all rail transportation which plays such an important role in our economy and local communities. I look forward to continuing this close partnership, both with America’s rail passengers and our bipartisan group of senators, to ensure a bright future for the Southwest Chief route."
Senator Jerry Moran (R-KS)
