Pete for this fine cityscape of a great city

Amtrak sure has come a long way since I rode the rails between New York & Philly when I was in school

this speedster makes the trip in 1:15 & has WiFi

makes me want to return to the NE Corridor just to try it

Philadelphia has a particularly lovely rail station

as a native Philadelphian I have always felt NYC's decision to raze the magnificent Pennsylvania Station and replace it with the present monstrosity characteristic of the two city's different personalities

Thank you, George, Artichoke,

I agree about the NYC thing and that is what started the interest in historic preservation. Fortunately the NYC Post Office has moved and there are plans to convert that building to a railroad station as it is over top of the railroad anyway. I am thinking of Photoshoping the locomotive number from 2016 to 2012 and submitting it for the annual calendar photo.

Pete
