Time For Amtrak To Allow Pets And Carry More Vegan Options

by Train Passenger Thursday, Nov. 20, 2014 at 5:45 PM

Over 150 million American human caregivers for pets are excluded by Amtrak from their right to travel with pets

 Time For Amtrak To ...

While the US government

is asked

to destroy its cache

of weaponized anthrax

it's also time to

allow pets

on Amtrak.

Please join those asking Amtrak and the

government for compassionate change. US Congress 202 224 3121.

Illinois has achieved more concessions re pet policy than most states, but it is time to allow pets on every Amtrak train in the country.

Amtrak contact form http://www.amtrak.com/contact-us

or call 1-800-USA-RAIL (1-800-872-7245) or TDD/TTY (1-800-523-6590).

1 At least 150 million American humans are caregivers to cats and dogs.

2 Why should trains be denied to these citizens. There will be much more revenue for Amtrak when pet caregivers aren't excluded.

3 Europe has a much more ethical policy regarding pets on trains.

4 Republican governors Scott Walker of Wisconsin, John Kasich of Ohio, and Rick Scott of Florida, denied train improvements to their citizens by returning mass transit money to DC.

5. Many airlines allow well behaved pets.

6 In addition, Amtrak needs to provide many more vegan options for passengers. This also will increase revenue for the train system.

7. In addition, Amtrak could generate more revenue by bringing back the private traincar.



8. Time for the US to catch up to Japan, France, China and other 300 mph train countries.



Perhaps Dierk Bentley could write

the song 'dog on a train'.
