PTC and Jan 1 2016 showdown

You might do a Forum Search, as this is already being discussed some days ago. 

All the major railroads and passenger/commuter agencies have been contacting elected officials in DC about the "shut down" of all passenger service as well as hazardous chemicals prior to December 31, 2015. 

Thanks Hot Water.  As always "I am last to the party" on many subjects.  I just wish this forum had a more Google like search engine to find subjects.  If you don't use exact words nothing is returned in search or something way off the request.

Nothing to worry about.  The FRA will capitulate.  It's the only choice.

If you go to the advanced search, you can search by exact phrase, by a collection of words in no particular order, or by finding a single word out of many you choose. You can then sort by date to ensure it's a recent discussion on a subject like this.

It's actually an excellent search function, one just has to get to the advanced search and not the regular one. Hope this helps.

Thanks Andy for the tip!!
