And somehow Cuomo is blaming Amtrak for the mess, which is where Trump comes in:
Amtrak's incremental approach won't work anymore. The only way to truly solve the problems is to implement a comprehensive solution.

And long-term financial assistance in restoring Penn Station, and combining it with Penn Farley and expediting Gateway Tunnel construction.

And if only Cuomo had someone in the White House who was a fan of Amtrak for the past 8 years he could’ve asked for help…
