I'm sure CAHSR would have been happy with Amtrak's participation if it came with a financial contribution to the project. But Amtrak is too resource-starved to make that kind of commitment, and that was particularly true in the earliest days of CAHSR. Other than providing cash, what should Amtrak's involvement have been? It's not as if it's expert in developing high speed rail from scratch.
