Carter | C001125 | troycarter.house.gov | troycarter | https://troycarter.house.gov/media/press-releases | scraper | WASHINGTON, D.C. – Congressman Troy A. Carter, Sr. (D-La.) released the following statement after recent merger decision clears the way for passenger rail line between Baton Rouge, New Orleans, and beyond. “A high-quality, fast way to get across Louisiana is one step closer to reality. Reviving rail service between our two largest cities is critical to resolving the region’s transportation infrastructure issues. A passenger train has not run between Baton Rouge and New Orleans since 1969 but is critically important to Louisianians and vital to fostering growth in the region. This will also enable the realization of passenger rail between New Orleans and Mobile. “This has been one of my top priorities since I was elected to Congress. I will continue to monitor the progress of this merger to ensure that Canadian Pacific keeps the promises they have made to the citizens of Louisiana.” | 1 | 2026-03-30T01:40:41Z | 2026-04-07T23:30:02Z |
