A question I keep posting every now and then is what the actual reliability is for long distance trains. I basically stopped planning long distance trains for vacation trips after I was unloaded from one number 3 in the middle of the night due to a derailment and a year later had a trip on 14 canceled completely due to a bridge outage. I've got to think the rate of extremely late trains, annulments, and so forth is somewhere well above nuisance level. So the question becomes, when do you stop putting money into a losing proposition? What does it take for someone to come up with new and better solutions?
