Minnesota funding for second train to Chicago thwarted But supporters remain determined to add daily service between St. Paul and the Windy City. November 4, 2020 7:38pm Text size Copy shortlink:
Supporters of a proposed second round-trip train between the Twin Cities and Chicago are determined to advance the project despite failing to win funding at the legislature last month. The second train is by no means dead, said Brian Nelson, president of the passenger rail advocacy group All Aboard Minnesota. We are investigating a whole host of [funding] alternatives.
Earlier this year, the project received a boost when the Federal Railroad Administration awarded it $32 million. But the money comes with the caveat that Minnesota kick in $10 million in matching funds.

It s a go for second daily train to Chicago from St. Paul June 29, 2021 6:09am Text size Copy shortlink:
A yearslong effort to establish a second daily passenger train trip between St. Paul and Chicago received a critical $10 million boost at the Legislature last week, meaning additional service to the Windy City is expected to begin in 2024.
Money from the state part of a $7 billion omnibus transportation bill signed by Gov. Tim Walz on Saturday was the final piece needed to jump-start the additional round-trip service to Chicago s Union Station. This is a major victory, said Brian Nelson, president of All Aboard Minnesota, a St. Paul-based passenger rail advocacy group.
