Yea, that is true. I mean having more robust regional routes covering smaller sections would be cool but don't expect an extensive web of trains going around the Rockies or Wyoming.

I'd love to see something reasonable to cover the empire builder line- I just want to get home to Seattle from Chicago for the holidays in under $100 round trip :/ otherwise it's Alaska Airlines for me.
