EXCLUSIVE INTERVIEW—Why Mobtown Mayor Loves the New Gulf Coast Amtrak to NOLA
Mobile, Alabama Mayor William S. "Sandy" Stimpson spoke in an exclusive interview with Where Y'at Magazine aboard the new Amtrak Mardi Gras Service during its inaugural trip between New Orleans to his City by the Bay.
Mayor Stimpson shared why he's excited to have this rail service connecting Mobile (which first started Mardi Gras in North America) to New Orleans (were it was perfected).
Speaking about the good-natured rivalry surrounding each city's claim claim to Fat Tuesday, which was the inspiration for the train's name, the economic opportunities the reimplemented rail service offers, and why this relaxed traffic-jam free ride along the Gulf Coast is a win for both cities—as well as all the Mississippi stops in between. ๐
