Amtrak planning host of projects in 'aggressive' 2010 campaign

Replacing fleet, trimming travel times key elements
Amtrak's president and CEO announced Monday that the passenger-rail company plans to replace its entire fleet of cars and locomotives, including those on the Acela line, as part of its package of 2010 initiatives.

The company is also looking to reduce the travel time between New York and Washington and between New York and Boston by 15 minutes, Joseph Boardman said during a "2010 Preview" conference call held Monday morning.

The goals reflect an "aggressive game plan full of major projects with new initiatives," Boardman said during the 35-minute call with reporters.
