Post subject:  Steamtown Insurance Bail-Out Falls Short

Got your attention? This is about Steamtown in Austrailia, where the insurance crisis is forcing the government to consider a one-time bailout for heritage railroads faced with closure because of insurance. Unfortunately, the government's money needs to be spread around to all operators and won't bailout everyone.

Has TRAIN lobbied for similar pork here in the US? With all the various TEA money thrown around, this seems like a plausible objective.
