National Interconnected Network
America is a very large country with a varied geography.
Americans are a very diverse population with widely varied
travel needs.
Therefore, America needs a range of railroad services designed
to meet local and regional needs.
It is important that Congress creates a railroad development
program that is flexible enough to deal with the wide range
of transportation needs, while also recognizing that any passenger
rail service will need to operate as part of a nationwide,
interconnected, and interstate network.
