[@juneshopper]

this is cool, I remember when Amtrak started but did not ride until the 80's My parents worked for Frisco RR, who did not join because they no longer had any passenger trains. I grew up riding trains everywhere on Dad's free pass, he died in 1973 so never got to ride them. But Mom and I did a few times. I started long distance travel in early 20's and have not stopped. Have some planned this summer. Glad you are restoring the daily service on LD, makes it easier to plan trips. And I have made friends among the crew on various trains, usually the conductor because my maternal grandpa and his brothers were conductors and Mom used to help him with all of his paperwork. Not much now, with the scanning. I have been collecting punch marks for last couple of years since I found out they still carry them. I visited the 40th display train , not sure if there will be one this year, but have t-shirt ordered for 50th. Congrats, Amtrak on a job well done and I love riding trains, so long may they roll.

Columbus, Ohio is the largest metro area in the United States that currently has no Amtrak service. This new route is projected to have a stop in Galion, Ohio where I live! Oh Happy Day!

[@uncinarynin]

When comparing these, I think phase IV looked most classy and refined to me with the amount of silver and the matching pinstripes on locomotives and cars. When designing liveries, please don't just think of locomotives, but entire trains. The stripe levels of the Chargers and Venture cars of Amtrak Midwest already don't match. The livery should harmonize with both single deck (Amfleet, Horizon, Viewliner, Venture) and double deck (Superliner and whatever comes after) rolling stock. 0:32 Was Amtrack spelled with "ck" at the beginning or is this just a mistake of the newspaper?

[@MattsTrainArchive]

Most likely a mistake.

[@Mike-uw4wn]

@@MattsTrainArchive It seems the spelling is a common misconception, in my local city, the street signs pointing toward the station even say "Amtrack", I think it's a simple error that people who don't know much about trains logically assume track has a C in it- because it does until it doesn't, thanks Amtrak

[@AmtrakFanatic]

3:08 It is mentioned a bunch of times, especially in other videos that Amtrak is looking to “better tie the schemes together” again to get rid of a disjointed look. I’ll tell you one step closer to doing that. Take the Viewliner IIs and put them in Phase VI. It was the stupidest idea to put them in Phase III, especially when they’re to be used in conjunction with other cars already in Phase VI. With a rumor of putting everything in Phase VII, it’ll take time, so for now I don’t think it takes much to put them into Phase VI. The trains would look so much better, especially the single-level long distance trains.
