Amtrak is really hamstrung by lack of funding, FRC regulations that maim passenger rail service, little cooperation from state transportation departments (CT is notably terrible), antagonism from the Class I railroads, and, yes, poor executive decision making.

I hope this California rail project goes through just to demonstrate to the world that the US is still competent in civil engineering and not completely politically dysfunctional. The same goes for the Gateway rail tunnel under the Hudson.
