The company has said it plans to replace up to 40% of its non-Acela fleet by 2031, starting on the Cascades route and then phasing in the Airos elsewhere.

In addition, the board recommended tighter standards for railcar windows, concluding that the four people ejected would have survived if the windows had been secure. Older rail cars like the Amfleets that ride along the Northeast Corridor are not covered because the rule applies only to cars ordered after 2018.
