We kind of do. It&#x27;s just that the tracks are owned by freight companies BNSF, Union Pacific, CSX, or Norfolk Southern. Take a look at their system maps.<p>BNSF: <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;en.wikipedia.org&#x2F;wiki&#x2F;BNSF_Railway#&#x2F;media&#x2F;File:BNSF_Railway_system_map.svg" rel="nofollow noreferrer">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;en.wikipedia.org&#x2F;wiki&#x2F;BNSF_Railway#&#x2F;media&#x2F;File:BNSF_...</a><p>UP: <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.up.com&#x2F;aboutup&#x2F;reference&#x2F;maps&#x2F;system_map&#x2F;index.htm" rel="nofollow noreferrer">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.up.com&#x2F;aboutup&#x2F;reference&#x2F;maps&#x2F;system_map&#x2F;index.h...</a><p>CSX: <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;en.wikipedia.org&#x2F;wiki&#x2F;CSX_Transportation#&#x2F;media&#x2F;File:CSX_Transportation_system_map.svg" rel="nofollow noreferrer">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;en.wikipedia.org&#x2F;wiki&#x2F;CSX_Transportation#&#x2F;media&#x2F;File...</a><p>NS: <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;en.wikipedia.org&#x2F;wiki&#x2F;Norfolk_Southern_Railway#&#x2F;media&#x2F;File:Norfolk_Southern_Railway_system_map.svg" rel="nofollow noreferrer">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;en.wikipedia.org&#x2F;wiki&#x2F;Norfolk_Southern_Railway#&#x2F;medi...</a><p>Canadian National Railway and Canadian Pacific Kansas City fill in a few gaps in the US and extend the system to Canada and Mexico. Throw in Ferromex and that covers most of North America.<p>We have the trackage, we need to find a way to put passenger rail on a better footing against freight carriers.
