You don't need a competator for Amtrak you need a replacement for them and one that is national and willing to stay the distance. There is not enough money in the transport of pigeons for two national companies to fight over or they would be doing it already
CUSTOMER BEWARE there better be a good back up plan, if someone eats well into the profits of Amtrak that they deem it no longer viable and then they fizzle out then goodbye national courier service.
AM Deliveries need to get the studs contracts, Stuart Wilcox posted on here some time ago that he spends over £15000 a year on Amtrak and they still muck him about, they are the guys they need to target if they are serious
Apart from that you will get good and bad drivers in any company, accidents, excusses, cockups, networking problems, computer glitches, traffic works and accidents. The list is endless :'( :'( :'( :'( I know I have used most of them ;D ;D ;D
