The Trump 2019 budget cut over $600 million from Amtrack's budget, and Amtrack was already not in great financial shape.

If there's a change in leadership and some changes in US mentality regarding trains vs cars/planes, there might be hope for Amtrack in the future. If not, then I would expect more services being eliminated until there's nothing left.
