The Rail Passenger Fairness Act authorizes Amtrak to bring civil actions in federal district court to enforce its statutory right to preference over freight transportation when using rail lines, junctions, or crossings. Currently, only the Attorney General can enforce this preference right, which has been granted to Amtrak since 1973 but is frequently violated by host railroads, resulting in poor on-time performance and passenger delays. The bill amends federal law to give Amtrak direct enforcement authority, citing historical data showing that effective enforcement mechanisms improve on-time performance and reduce costs.
