by Sara DiNatale, Mississippi Today October 28, 2022 The Surface Transportation Board, a federal body made up of presidential appointees, announced Friday it will vote on the future of the passenger route on Dec. 7. The contested route has been under the board’s review for over a year, with Amtrak and the track’s freight-company owners presenting their own cases about its viability. There will be a final set of November hearings ahead of the vote.
