The Location of that Photo is accurate, just not the train name. Corey

Hmm.. Hard Question. Air Tran is an extremely nice airline as I fly them almost exclusively. They run some of the best equipment. Mostly MD95 but the 737-700 is very nice as well. If getting there on time is a factor, go with Air Tran, if you fly often, take the train as it's a more relaxing...

Might just make an even bigger target for the local drunks to hit with a bat... Might want to think about building one on your own? It's all basic shapes. Corey

Okay, here's a simple answer. Amtrak has not made a single dime of actual profit in their entire life. They lose more than they make. Corey

What? None of that makes any sense.. They used steam heated equipment till the early 80s (when most hep conversions were done). When the superliner 1's were first delivered, they were using steam heated equipment still. I've seen photos that proove that. Plus, many heritage cars were done in the...

You all are forgetting the high end platforms on all the stations from NYC-Syracuse. And on the NEC. This makes it virtually impossible for superliner service, when they subbed the LSL consist with superliners, they had to overshoot stations. Corey

I use it for all my amtrak content that i make. It's a good simulator, but its way better than MSTS in terms of user friendliness and making routes and such. Corey

Well... Lets see, its durable, realistic and convienent. But its a must buy for a desktop railfan, anyone else might be driven off by the pricetag. Corey

Hey all, heres some Amtrak models i've been working on for my new website Virtual Beech Grove. Heres the former southern pacific series 1700 baggage cars.. IV-Low IV-High IVB And the custom 41-CNO trucks that these cars run on.. Let me know what you all think! Corey

Cool find, Imageshack.us is a good site that doesnt require a membership. Corey

I sure hope they bring back the heritage diners (they are planning to) but who knows... Corey

Yea, i knew they kept 3 viewliners on the LSL back in summer 07, but i havnt paid much attention to getting up early to watch it go by lately. I have been meaning to go see it go by, since i am interested to see the new consist, but have been too lasy. :P Corey

Hi all, I havnt seen the LSL lately, but can anyone please tell me the new consist? Do they add another viewliner on during the summer? Also, i heard that the diners are being rebuilt, will this mean that the LSL will soon have diners again? And whats up with the crappy horizon car. Thanks! Corey

Ge Freight units and hoppers, the texas eagle doesnt use a baggage, plus theres a Dorm up front. Corey

Hi all, Im taking the lake shore next thursday, is there a way to request two seats on the right of the car? I wanted to see my house as its visible from the train, and id like to see the lake front. Corey

Hello all, I havnt really been posting much on here, but i thought id let everyone know im finally getting to ride the train again! Im taking train 48 to chicago the 21st of this month. I'll be returning on the 23rd. Is the diner lite operating on this train? Also, what are the chances of...

I believe that train runs with a cabbage so one would think so, but you'd be better off calling Amtrak and asking one of their representatives. Corey

It is an unrefurbished, the refurbed with the smoking lounges were greyish and white if i remember right, while the as delivered were brown and maroon. Corey
