No matter what the railroads and the Federal Railroad Administration say, the public and passengers on Amtrak are at risk due to poor maintenance practices. The margin of safety is decreasing daily. We read every letter. We allow one letter per author per month. We call to confirm every letter published to ensure that no one is sending a letter under someone else's name.
Every letter gets equal consideration.
If it's published, your letter will probably appear in the Journal and Courier within two weeks after we receive it. We strive for balance, but there are times when we may only receive letters on one side of an issue. If your opinion differs from those you see printed, write and give us your perspective. We don't publish obvious organized attempts to flood us with mail on a given topic. We don't publish form letters, anonymous letters, or letters without an address and phone number.
