Why does Glen of New Hope, Minnesota support passenger rail?
"It’s a no-brainer. Every city along the route with a stop benefits economically. It’s easy, efficient and a wonderfully pleasant way to travel."

@mndot.mn.gov estimates every St Paul-Chicago trip by train, instead of car, saves $296. $88 comes in social benefits-safety, emissions and crash reduction. The rest goes to the rider, due to reduced cost of operating a personal vehicle. Increased rail service is a no-brainer! @hsrail.bsky.social

Did you know we are advocating for TWO new passenger rail routes?
We're garnering support from key leaders for additional passenger rail service between Twin Cities ↔ Fargo and new service between the Twin Cities ↔ Kansas City.

Like Minnesota, the state of Missouri has a state-supported passenger train - the Missouri River Runner - connecting Kansas City and St. Louis, stopping at eight cities in between.
Join us in advocating for more state supported trains including St. Paul to Fargo and the Twin Cities to Kansas City.

Would you like to take a train from St Paul to Albert Lea? What about from Faribault to Des Moines? The re-establishment of train service between the Twin Cities ⇆ Des Moines ⇆ Kansas City is possible.
