Yes unfortunately Reagan abolished it in 1982.  Among other stupid things he
attempted to do was to get rid of Amtrak in 1985, the nation's only
passenger rail service.  I barely sleeped a wink.
Glad Amtrak is still around.

I remember a bumper sticker that says "Real men don't eat jellybeans"!!!

section of the timetable -- they won't listen to me yet about putting km with
the miles in the schedules, like was there 1976-1986)
