On June the 23rd, 2009 the Southern High Speed Rail Commission submitted a  resolution to Congress in support of Amtrak's option 3 (c) , daily passenger rail service between New Orleans and Sanford Florida.

Please write or call your congressman regarding the resumption of passenger rail service east of New Orleans, across the Ms and Al Gulf Coast and the Florida panhandle. 

The Subcommittee on Railroads, Pipelines, and Hazardous Materials
Committee on Transportation and Infrastructure, U.S. House of Representatives, will be having hearings on this matter in mid July. Please let the  chairman, the Honorable Corrine Brown, know of your support for Amtrak option 3 (c), daily service.
