Ohio Secures Federal Funding for Amtrak Expansion, Connecting Major Cities

U.S. Senator Sherrod Brown has announced that the Federal Railroad Administration has selected four key routes in Ohio as priorities for Amtrak expansion. The corridors, including Cleveland-Columbus-Dayton-Cincinnati, Cleveland-Toledo-Detroit, Chicago-Fort Wayne-Columbus-Pittsburgh, and the Daily Cardinal Service, will receive funding for planning and will have priority in future funding competitions. This expansion is made possible by the Bipartisan Infrastructure Law, which Brown helped pass. The investment aims to expand opportunity, grow businesses, create jobs, and connect communities in Ohio and across the Midwest.
