☆ Why Amtrak is attempting to revive the Texas Central bullet train
  + stars: | 2024-03-11 | by ( Carlos Waters | In Carloswaters | ) www.cnbc.com   time to read: +5 min
In 2023, Amtrak revived hopes for the bullet train in the Texas Triangle, when it announced its intention to broaden its partnership with Texas Central. The Texas Central project has been repeatedly delayed as its backers navigate various regulatory hurdles, including environmental reviews and disputes over property rights. The proposed alignment for the Texas high-speed rail project crosses Morney-Berry Farm, which Berry's family has cultivated for generations. And in late 2023, Texas Central received a Corridor ID program grant to study the route's potential for partnership with Amtrak. The backers of Texas Central declined repeated requests from CNBC for a comment on the project's progress and expected completion date.

But little progress has been made and pushback from some locals has been fierce. Last year, Amtrak announced it was partnering with Texas Central to potentially revive the effort. CNBC explores why there has been a long battle in the state over high-speed rail and whether Amtrak can finally bring a bullet train to Texas.
