A complete history of Amtrak operations in the heartland, this volume describes conditions that led to the passage of the Rail Passenger Service Act of 1970, the formation and implementation of Amtrak in 1970—71, and the major factors that have influenced Amtrak operations since its inception.
More than 140 photographs and three maps help illustrate the story as told by Sanders.
