Nice, Chris. As you are (or seem to be) Amtrak's No. 1 customer, I hope they give you some freebies or other amenities on these trips.

If you've logged 1,350,000 miles in your travels, I figure you're only about 1,345,000 miles ahead of me, so don't look behind you.

Great Picture/History record of your many journeys.
Now with the new miles added to the DownEaster in a few days, I suspect you are planning a return trip to New England soon.

Jonathon - nice to see you here again.

Any recent trips or great photographs to share?

Hey Jonathon----haven't seen you post in a long time! Haven't seen you since the La Plata trip on the SW Chief. Hope all is going well on your end.

Quite an accomplishment Chris. Wish you had been around to document passenger operations pre Amtrak!
