Amtrak Discusses Expanded Rail Service Proposal In Colorado

DENVER (CBS4)- There is a renewed push to get passenger train service from Cheyenne, Wyoming, to Pueblo. On Tuesday, members of Colorado's Front Range Commission met with Amtrak's president and CEO to talk about their vision for rail service.

Just last week, Amtrak released a map showing the proposed new service across the U.S. It included a line from Cheyenne to Pueblo with stops in Fort Collins, Denver and Colorado Springs.

Amtrak hopes to put in the extended rail network by 2035.
