GeoffS I don't know if this means anything or not. The Amtrak store is loaded up and selling stuff again EXCEPT there are no shirts with train names on them like "Texas Eagle", only lapel pins! Are the trains going the way of the shirts? Hope not!!

don't know and have not checked lately. I have a couple of great Amtrak shirts that I bought from them a few years ago. Always wear them on long dist Amtrak and people have thought I was with the crew. The crew always gives me a thumbs up and said "we love your shirt". So do I
Maybe the store is staying and the trains are going.
With all of the discussion on Amtrak taking away hot meals & dining
cars I wonder if anyone has noticed the Amtrak store seems to be
disappearing? Try to buy a t-shirt with a train name on it is impossible
and so many of the other things in the store have lower prices and the
warning "while supplies last" attached to them. I was in Union station
Chicago thursday 4/19 and in the lower level there was a gentleman in
a store front selling Amtrak stuff. T-shirts were just 12 bucks. Problem was
for all the shirts he had there was one small, a few large, and every other
one extra large or greater. It sure looked like a going out of business sale!
If it was (& I don't know) is this another way to save money? Ugh!!
