Possible Rail Re-opening Fort Worth/Dallas - Abilene/El Paso

[limeyone]

I've moved to the Abilene area in the past four years and travel to Dallas on a regular basis. I've used bus, car and air on different occasions and found them all inconvenient or uncomfortable. I believe that, given the traffic volumes in and around El Paso, Abilene, Fort Worth and Dallas, there is a need for a new passenger rail connection between these cities. Does anyone feel likewise? If so, I would appreciate any comments via the discussion group. I too appreciate the history of the line. And, after all, Abilene was a main railway center in the past, and helped to establish this city.
