[NFBMT] Amtrak ticket counter closures

[BRESLAUERS]

It's because Montana is 48 in population and 4th in size and they don't think 
it's economical to have a ticket counter here.  They are just looking at the 
big economic picture for them, and they are trying to save money.  You can 
still get a train ticket, but you have to go online for it or call their phone 
number, or show up at the train and pay cash to the conductor, which means 
you'll pay the highest price and won't get a deal.

No I didn't hear that at all.
They are sure making it harder for us to get around in Montana.
My goodness.
I keep hoping all will get turned around soon.
Is this because Montana is only car driven?
