Amtrak Plans High-Speed Service

Amtrak officials are planning for high-speed trains to travel between Boston and the nation’s capital. The plan is projected to take 30 years and more than $100 million for trains that will travel more than 200 mph.



    Tearing Up
    (and Down)
    The Tracks

Amtrak has a plan
For trains that go real fast;
Speeds that may, some feel,
Leave passengers aghast.

Take the morning train
Down the Northeast corridor
And get safely to your job
Sometime the night before.
