Today’s our birthday, but we’re giving you a gift — the brand-new Borealis service! Enjoy round-trip daily trips between Saint Paul, MN and Chicago, IL onboard Borealis starting May 21st.
53 years of being America's Railroad! Happy birthday to us 🥳
Happy 53rd birthday, @Amtrak! I spent the bulk of my congressional career taking Amtrak. I commuted every day from Wilmington to D.C. Amtrak wasn’t just a way to get home to family—the conductors and engineers became my family too.
On behalf of @RepAdams, I led the NC Delegation in a moment of silence to honor the four law enforcement officers who gave the ultimate sacrifice, the four officers who were injured, and the first responders who answered the call.
My brother in Christ, we spend $944.3 billion on Medicare.

@tatereeves We’re republicans and we want full Medicaid expansion. We pay the same federal taxes either way —might as well accept that money for Mississippi and SAVE LIVES 🤣
It never made sense to have weed as a schedule 1 drug. Countless veterans and cancer patients have used it to treat everything from PTSD to chronic pain. This is great news!

The four fallen officers have been identified: CMPD Officer Joshua Eyer US Marshals Taskforce officers Sam Poloche and Alden Elliot Deputy US Marshal Thomas Weeks

The NYC DOT estimates that there are 3 million on-street parking spaces across the five boroughs, an area roughly equivalent to 12 Central Parks (red). See that small yellow box? That's outdoor dining. Good to know we are basically killing the program to get those spaces back!
The Gentrification Debate is always my favorite. It implies that whites originated in the suburbs and that White Flight was good (It wasn't). And somehow moving from where you currently live to somewhere else because you want to and improving that neighborhood is violence.

china had one day of small youth protest in late 2022, that resulted in most of the handful of students that protested being arrested and many of them have disappeared. theguardian.com/world/2023/feb…

Average rents are falling in the Raleigh area. They're down 10.6% year-on-year, as a result of 11,000 new apartments being built. Housing is a commodity, and its prices behave like a commodity. There's a clear lesson here! newsobserver.com/news/business/…
it’s almost like “luxury” is just a marketing buzzword and the real reason housing is so expensive is that most of the country is suffering from a chronic housing shortage due to exclusionary zoning

Please keep the @CLTgov City of Charlotte, @CMPD, DAC, and the US Marshals in your prayers. Today while serving a warrant, officers of the U.S. Marshals Fugitive Task Force were met with gunfire from the front lawn and the home of the service address. 1/4
Biden spent $4 trillion on infrastructure, climate change, and healthcare investments for the US and y’all didn’t say a word. Stop pretending to care.

@the_transit_guy This is a huge step in the right direction. This will be the first Amtrak train to originate out of St. Paul in nearly 40 years. That means more reliable departure and arrival times. Folks from Chicago can use the light rail (current arrivals are after the last run).

And the thing that makes this story even more American? He likely charged double his base rate to come to the stadium on an emergency call 🥹🇺🇸
I love that a beekeeper saved a baseball game last night, threw out a first pitch, amped up the crowd, and did postgame interviews. Make him the MLB commissioner.
Such a batshit thing for Eric Adams of all of the people in the entire world to say

@mightylzrdking Routing is just lousy for Madison currently... x.com/RAILMag/status…
@neyoid @pantherbuckeye1 @ThunderWolf08 To add to @neyoid's point, the current rail lines to Madison aren't well-configured for Twin Cities-Milwaukee routing. It would require a reverse move. Additionally, the tracks between Watertown, Madison and Portage are in not suitable condition for regular passenger service.
TCMC launch date dropped... Borealis service will compliment the Empire Builder over this corridor by extending one current CHI-MKE Hiawatha RT to St. Paul. Currently, the train will not continue to Minneapolis, but may reach there (and beyond) eventually. One step at a time...
Amtraks newest train the Borealis (Between St. Paul and Chicago) will start service May 21st.
