Mr. Bachrach, I will apologize for not having a very good answer for you. My organization did commission a research study over the summer to look at this very question. Maybe, in due course, we will be able to point to models of things that are working.
What I would say is what works very well south of the border is Amtrak's Thruway model. In this model, they have contracted or partnered to extend services to particular areas. They didn't make it a public-sector operator, but they partnered well with the private sector. I think that could work well here.
