@scottstarkey.hoosier.social.ap.brid.gyThe adventure started with me and my brother taking a #train ride out to #WashingtonDC. I've never taken an #Amtrak before!
So, a 21-hour ride by train. I sprung for the "roomette" which had exactly enough room for one person to stand, with a pair of bunks for sleeping. It could be converted to […]
@stevefoerster.vivaldi.net.ap.brid.gyI know the US really sucks at passenger trains, but wow, the high fares for #Amtrak, supposedly a government-run public service, are preposterous. I don't really want to have to drive up and down the Northeast Corridor, but with Amtrak's outrageous fares, it's either that or take the bus.
@haazah.bsky.socialAs a Milwaukeean, #Amtrak is absolutely how I prefer to visit our too-big-for-its britches southern suburb!
@imawindycitygal.bsky.socialWe rode the Amtrak Pacific Surfliner south to San Diego today and, boy, is this train aptly named. The stretch near San Clemente was dramatic! The train was close enough to the surf to get sprayed and it felt like we were running over beach debris at one point. #Amtrak #trains #traintravel 😅

@lewiswhatshisname.comI have just made the most dangerous train gambles ever, and it worked and I have never felt so alive. The next bus to the station arrived at 14:40, but the train I needed left at 14:30. On the basis that #Amtrak has never arrived on time, I booked the 14:30, which is currently now 30 minutes late

@bureaucracytimes.bsky.socialAmtrak was created in 1971 on the premise that it would become profitable without a subsidy. It never did. 50 years later, Congress is still debating the same question. A look at how the fiction got built — and why it stuck. #Amtrak #GovernmentCorporations #RailPolicy #GovernmentAccountability…

@publicnewsservice.bsky.socialRail carries 8% of the world's passengers but uses just 2% of global transportation energy. Now Amtrak is rolling out 83 new Airo trains (starting this fall in the Pacific Northwest) that can hit 125 mph and switch between diesel and electric. Collab w/@grist.org
