<br />[/quote] <br /> <br />Amtrak is the National Steel and Wire of the Rail Passenger world. For some reason, they're holding onto what worked a long time ago, and ignoring reality. The result is an operation that appeals to railfans, but basically makes everyone else shake their heads. <br /> <br />[/quote] <br /> <br />Chris, <br />I ride the CZ to Grand Junction from time to time. Last time, last spring, the thing was packed. I was the only railfan aboard. No one was shaking their heads. <br /> <br />I worked Amtrak jobs a lot during the '70s. From Milwauke to Chicago or the Twin Cities. I was the only railfan aboard. <br /> <br />Mitch
