United Press International
SAN ANTONIO — A blaring
mariachi band and 400 spectators
turned out Jan. 27, 1973, to watch
the arrival of Amtrak’s sleek In
ter American passenger train, inau
gurating the nation’s only rail serv
ice to Mexico.
Last week Secretary of Transpor
tation Brock Adams announced he
was recommending the InterAmeri-
can, along with other long-distance
trains, be abolished in a 47 percent
cutback of Amtrak service.
During the intervening six years,
the businessmen who live along the
route had watched their origional
dreams turn sour. Adams’ an
nouncement was merely the final
blow, and a good reason for venting
the anger that has festered over
what they say was the mismanage
ment of what could have been a
beautiful service.
When the service was first an
nounced — a Chicago to Laredo
route to meet with the Mexican
Aztec Eagle that ran to Mexico City
— it created visions of the old days
when Mexican businessmen rode
twice-daily trains into San Antonio,
filling the Gunter Hotel. Laredo
and Mexican officials remembered
full trains carrying tourists to Nuevo
Laredo for the bullfights each
weekend.
Mexican railroad officials re
sponded. They had promised to
provide all the equipment for direct
transfer of Amtrak passenger cars
onto the Aztec Eagle. All Amtrak
had to do was run daily trains and
get them to Laredo on time.
The reality of the Amtrak train
was less than that. The InterAineri-
can runs three times a week, misses
the Laredo-Mexico City connection
by 23 hours, creeps at an average 49
mph and provides service that San
Antonio Mayor Lila Cockrell called
"rinky dink.
Although Amtrak provides its
passengers in the Northeast Cor
ridor with comfortable boarding sta
tions, complimentary newspapapers
and coffee, hourly trains that zoom
at speeds up to 100 mph and have
on-board telephones, the In-
terAmerican supplies its passengers
with frozen sandwiches heated in a
micro-wave oven by one employee
who is too busy to clean the dining
area, the mayor said, and San An
tonio still does not have a train sta
tion.
Passengers in San Antonfb buy
their tickets at the Southern Pacific
station, then are ’ busfed acfdss
downtown one mile to wait beside
the track for the train in what local
Amtrak agent Lester Noble terms
"the mud hole.
Although Amtrak officials pre
dicted six years ago the InterAmeri-
can would be the only long-distance
passenger train to be “in the black
by 1978, the route lost
last year. Hamilton contends
$7 million of that loss was
head’ tacked on by Amtrak s
reason revenues are dowa
cause of the shoddy service,
connections in Mexico, and
to promote the route.
Officials along the Texasro(
Amtrak officials never intend
the InterAmerican to continn
that Amtrak torpedoed itso|
money could could be spent
Northeast Corridor.
Hamilton goes further, al
that Amtrak charged $38 ml
Northeast Corridor rail
nance expenses against tie
distance routes to show the
east Corridor trains are pro
and the others are not.
At Laredo, Chamber
meree manager Gary Payne st
lieves if the train would
make a daily connection#
Mexican train, it wouldbeap

“It has tremendous
was marketed right, if it’d
right connections with tie
across the river. The Mexkd
are full all the time and then
of people coming to tldi
States. You’ve got a built
ket,” Payne said.
Noble, who has been in
road business 35 years and
his job with Amtrak i(
ter American is abolished,
on the local train station,
poorest Amtrak has anywl
said.
