   Despite Amtrak having record ridership and excellent cost control,   
   you can expect the Trump Administration to seek an excuse to kill it.

   Going back many years ago, the PRR originated long distance trains   
   at Exchange Place.  After Pennsylvania Station opened, they gradually

   the terminal itself.
