[QUOTE]Originally posted by tarheelman: [QB] [QUOTE]Originally posted by palmland: [qb] Great picture of ATSF engines. It was clear even in the latter days of railroad operated passenger service which carriers had some degree of pride in their operations. [/qb][/QUOTE]I agree---Santa Fe took great pride in their operations. Southern Railway did, too. Not surprisingly, Southern opted to continue its passenger service at the time that Amtrak was formed. It's been said that ATSF only gave up its passenger service to Amtrak in '71 at the last minute, after being told that they couldn't drop their unprofitable routes and keep the ones that were still making a small profit.
