The Heartland Flyer is vital for Ardmore and connects our community to OKC and Fort Worth without relying on cars. It’s a lifeline for seniors and boosts our local economy. Please keep it running and consider expanding it northward! 🚂
Trains have stopped on 2 separate tracks by my home and they have made me late for work, my kids late for school, and WORST of all the ambulance couldn’t get to my brother or was having a stroke and subsequently died. Something has to change!!!!
Having served the states for almost 50 years, the F40s are and will always be a monumental piece of railroading history. Let’s at least save a few so that we can continue to honor the F40 for its service to Amtrak and multiple commuter rail agencies!
