Amtrak was unable to get the new LA-Las Vegas Talgo off the ground due to federal budget problems and the lack of a full state partner. Nevada had some funding available but not to the extent that CA funds its services.

A strip stop at the Rio would have been included. Project could still happen, but very uncertain.
