Has anybody seen a Superliners travelling somewhere on Google Earth/maps? Well there is one in Chicago Union St., but I mean somewhere in the open landscape. I would be thankful for any hint.

Either that train is parked in somebody's barnyard or I'm not navigating correctly... :blink:I think eastbound CL appears at 39.525651N 76.460232W. Second opinion is necessary.....
Blasted.....I wrote down the wrong coordinates and I lost the location in GE.... train was located east of Cumberland, MD....
Will try to re-locate
I'll bet that's it. That stretch of track looks familiar.ok.... try 39.525651N 78.460232W
Thanks a lot, that is the CL on August 25, 2007. But due to the trees next to the track and the shadow I think I will rather stick with my location at Roosevelt Rd south of Union St. Chicago, which gives a much clearer view. You can see it here on the mapI'll bet that's it. That stretch of track looks familiar.ok.... try 39.525651N 78.460232W
I have Firefox/3.0.7 and Flash 10, all I get is a "360 cities" screen with a data entry box on upper right, the rest of the page is blank. I must have something else screwey here...Thanks a lot, that is the CL on August 25, 2007.

and you can actually go on the Superliner ( blue markers) and fly trough all cars and accommodations and have a look around (360 degrees). Free of charge and without ticket. Firefox and Flash 10 recommended for the trip.
I have IE 8 and I don't get anything, either????I have Firefox/3.0.7 and Flash 10, all I get is a "360 cities" screen with a data entry box on upper right, the rest of the page is blank.

I have Firefox and it works great. Google maps shows the train in Chicago with icons on cars to look inside of like their Streetview. When did you last update Firefox? Mine needed it last night, now version 3.0.8. There are 8 views inside the train plus one view standing at the end of the Roosevelt Bridge.I have IE 8 and I don't get anything, either????I have Firefox/3.0.7 and Flash 10, all I get is a "360 cities" screen with a data entry box on upper right, the rest of the page is blank.

Ok, now I have FireFox 3.0.8, and I just verified Flash WIN 10,0,22,87 is the latest and greatest; still no joy. Off to diddle the popup stoper (usually tells me when it blocks something)...http://www.360cities.net/map#lat=41.86617&...355&zoom=19

As I am part of that website I am especially thankful of any report about problems to see it. We will look into this matter. :unsure: Please check that popups are not blocked.
"There are 8 views inside the train plus one view standing at the end of the Roosevelt Bridge." beside of 16000 other views all over the world....when zooming out in the map view.

You can also see this through Google Earth, just go the same place mentioned above just south of Union Station Chicago.
I know this is off topic, but I wanted to thank you personally for all the great panos on your site! I found them before I found this site. They really set my mind at ease about the Superliner bedroom features & size. I also enjoy looking at all the other trains too. Thank You!You can also see this through Google Earth, just go the same place mentioned above just south of Union Station Chicago.
Yes that is right , my 360cities is linked to Google Earth. To see it you have to go to the layers in Google earth: Primary Database/Gallery and tick the 360cities box. watch for the red 360 dots on the earth. Then you can fly into the Superliner
