    10 Ways High-Speed Rail Will Impact the Freight Industry

    I hate flying and if high speed trains were an option I would be all over it. We cannot use our existing tracks for this purpose and Amtack is a money loser except for the east coast. Fort Wayne is the second largest city in Indiana and we don't have Amtrack service, really sad if you ask me...
