The letter read in part: We appreciated receiving updates on Amtraks latest activities to ensure its services and facilities are accessible. However, our organizations were disappointed that the meeting was less interactive with the Board than anticipated. Additionally, concerns remain that were not addressed. We request a new meeting with the Amtrak Board and leadership to act as a catalyst to spur further conversation.
