Amtrak Call to Action
 

Dear Trail Supporter:

The Allegheny Trail Alliance and the Trail Town Program have been advocating for the roll-on/roll off service along Amtrak’s Capitol Limited Route and have reached the point where your help is needed! It is now time for our trail users to contact Amtrak with individual letters. Please adapt the letter below and make the necessary changes (highlighted as red text) to personalize it for your own situation and interest.

Amtrak prefers hard copies rather than e-mails, so we ask that you send a copy directly to the address listed in the supplemental letter below. It would be best to send a copy to both Mr. Fremaux and to Joe McHugh; both are at the same address.  Also, please mail copy of your letter to the ATA at P.O. Box 501, Latrobe, PA 15650, or e-mail it to admin@atatrail.org  Your immediate help is necessary and greatly appreciated! Thank you for your time!

 

LETTER OF SUPPORT:

Date

Mr. Emmett Fremaux

Vice President, Marketing & Product Management

National Railroad Passenger Corporation

60 Massachusetts Avenue, NE

Washington, DC  20002

 

Dear Mr. Fremaux:

I strongly urge Amtrak to provide roll-on/roll-off accommodations for bicycles
on the Capitol Limited route between Pittsburgh and Washington, DC. I would use
the service every year/month/week and be glad to pay a reasonable fee for
transporting my bicycle on the train.

Sincerely,

(Your signature)

 

Cc:  Joe McHugh, Vice President, Government Affairs & Communications
