Amtrak releases map of expanded US rail network

it says it can build with $80 billion from Biden's infrastructure plan



The light-blue lines represent what would be new services, while the orange lines show services that would be extended.

Amtrak said it could create more than 30 new routes and connect 160 new communities, and expand or improve rail service for some 20 million people. Materials prepped for the announcement said the plan would bolster transportation options for diverse populations throughout the country.

The new routes include cities that haven't before been connected to the national rail service, including western outposts like Las Vegas and Phoenix, Amtrak said.

Insider:  https://www.businessinsider.com/map-amtrak-could-build-expanded-rail-network-biden-infrastructure-plan-2021-4



The above extension was part of a study done by  by Amtrak and funded by the Kansas Department of Transportation.   The Biden Administration is looking at some proposed routes which could include a spur route to Tulsa  also another route proposed spline included Tulsa to Kansas City as a part of earlier maps as far back as 2009...

Pop’s signature is soda pop – with a selection of more than 400 ice-cold sodas and beverages. There is a full-service grill and self-serve gas station, so you might as well stop. Get there at dusk if you can, for a great photo op.  The LED pop bottle is 11 feet taller than Texas State Fair's Big Tex.




Love Pop's!   We go there regularly!   Only place in this state where I could find my favorite soda -  Rat Bastard Root Beer by Skeleteens.

And they seem to be gone now, too...

I don’t share my thoughts because I think it will change the minds of people who think differently.  I share my thoughts to show the people who already think like me that they are not alone.

Breeze Airways plans to start making flights in and out of Oklahoma City this summer.




Low-cost air carrier Breeze Airways plans to begin nonstop flights this summer between Oklahoma City and San Antonio, New Orleans and Tampa, Florida.




Airports Director Mark Kranenburg said those are three of the Top 10 most in-demand destinations currently unserved from Will Rogers World Airport.

The first flight will be to Tampa on July 1 followed by service to San Antonio and New Orleans starting July 15. Fares are as low as $39 one way.

Low-cost airfares boosted by fees

A base round-trip fare of $78 to Tampa was available Friday morning. Charges for seat assignments, carry-on bags and checked luggage more than double the fare.

Breeze's schedule has departures to Tampa on Sundays, Thursdays and Saturdays.

Flights to New Orleans and San Antonio are scheduled Sundays, Mondays, Thursdays and Fridays.

Breeze plans to fly the routes with 118-passenger Embraer 195 and 108passenger Embraer 190 jets.

Breeze markets customer perks such as flexibility in booking and cancellations.

San Antonio and Oklahoma City are the western-most destinations on its route map, which comprises generally smaller markets.

From New Orleans, Tampa and Charleston, customers can reach Midwest and Northeast markets including Louisville, Columbus, Hartford and Providence.
