Amtrak Averts Strike; SEPTA Riders Exhale

Amtrak announced today it had reached an agreement with nine unions, averting a strike that would have angered way too many people in the suburbs.

Amtrak will apparently grant back wages to its workers worth $150 million, which the government will probably pay since Amtrak is run almost entirely on federal subsidies. However, $150 million for the government is absolutely nothing, so hooray, everybody wins!
