Thomas White of Climate Rail Alliance has over 50 years of expertise in rail science, history, operations, and system design, and has written his first introductory paper on a way to restructure the business model of American railroads. It's called Toll Roads For Trains. We're sending it out nationally as an Action Network letter to generate interest in this game changing revision of how rail is owned, managed, and operated in the US. (ps - it's based on a European model that works supremely well!)

Please click START WRITING and the letter sends to your own Congress members and the Surface Transportation Board - the federal agency that regulates rail business.
Be part of a paradigm shift in how US railroads can be safe, effective, and much better utilized. Rail is a climate solution as well, being the lowest emitting mode when well developed, per passenger mile or ton mile, and also rail uses only 1/3 of any type of energy compared with highway travel. With energy at a premium, and the climate crisis upon us, we need to better utilize rail! Help us promote a model that breaks the monopolies but opens the rails to all qualified competition, putting the railroads under public control and regulation.
During Earth Month, please help promote Toll Roads For Trains by sending the letter!
