Hey y'all. Sort of new to the site and forums, although I've been browsing and posting here and there for the past couple of weeks. Been a fan of trains ever since I was a kid - my grandfather worked for the Pennsylvania Railroad in Baltimore for about ever, then later Conrail. I've been an off-and-on model railroader (N-scale) as well.
I have two homes, one in Frederick County, Maryland and one in Birmingham, Alabama and use the Crescent fairly often to get back and forth between them. I work in Washington, DC and use the Capitol Limited to commute home sometimes from Washington to HFY. It's a few bucks more than the MARC train, but it gets me the AGR points. Other routes I've ridden include the old Broadway Limited, the Capitol Limited all the way to Chicago, the Pennssylvanian from Philadelphia to Pittsburgh, and countless NEC regionals and Acelas, as well as lots of the old Metroliners from WAS or BWI to NYP. I also ride the local MARC's a lot in Maryland.
Nice to meet y'all.
