At one time, Amtrak hoped to begin service along the Gulf Coast by the end of this year. Now, it appears that will not happen until well into 2024.
The Southern Rail Commission, which is sponsoring the Amtrak line, continues to work on funding and securing agreements to build a platform and overlay track in Mobile.
After that, a new train platform that complies with the Americans with Disabilities Act needs to be built at the site of the existing platform that Amtrak used prior to Hurricane Katrina. Ross said negotiators are trying to come up with a design that will take as little of the Mobile parking lot as possible. CSX would build the track with a federal grant.
Any agreement would have to be approved by the Mobile City Council. Some council members have expressed opposition to taxpayer-subsidized passenger rail service. Ross said he is confident the council ultimately will approve it.
