FOR YOUR RADAR: Amtrak notified the Surface Transportation Board last week that it's OK with the agency ruling on pending motions from Norfolk Southern and CSX to dismiss its case against them for substandard on-time performance of its Capitol Limited service. Amtrak's decision is based on the Supreme Court declining to take up an appellate court's decision throwing out an STB rule that defined "on-time performance" for its trains. The passenger railroad filed its initial complaint against the freights, which own the tracks over which the Capitol Limited operates, in November 2014 based on the part of the law for which STB tried to define timeliness for Amtrak trains.
