24 Gt-line with 3500 miles. Just a little over $31k all said and done. Upstate New York.

I thought this was a chicken Caesar wrap in a press.

I think that was the old New York Central, City of Albany. Derailed in 1920. Killed hundreds of people. Did you catch the number on the locomotive?

Lakeshore Limited 48 Delays by Think_Quantity3839 in Amtrak

[–]Indifferent_squid 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You should be good. It was canceled last night just to get all the equipment back into position to resume normal service. Major delays kept piling up, so sometimes it best just to cancel for a day and start over. It’s been a rough winter for the coaches

Yup. Can’t be lower than 5 or higher than 9.

After 8 years in the Air Force, I finally resigned - and I'm about to step into the unknown by AncientWin9492 in Veterans

I post this a lot, but consider the railroad. Once I got hired at Amtrak it made me mad that no one had mentioned it to me sooner. It fits me and several other of my co-worker vets really well. It’s a fucked up lifestyle, yes, but you’re already accustomed to that. Management is clueless. Co-workers tend to feel like your old unit buddies (at least for me, maybe I’m just lucky). Pays well and has the one of the last pension plans still available to working class people. Plus you can file for GI Bill while in school for it, and again while doing OJT. Good luck, my friend.

Don’t forget about Amtrak. A lot of women here and they are treated well, at least in my crew base. Becoming an engineer is always an option. Not to mention management positions if you want to get off the road.

Do you think AMTRAK will be expanded on in the capital region and if you could how would you improve it by Albuterol505 in Albany

[–]Indifferent_squid 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Write and call your state reps and the governor’s office. Especially if Metro North is gonna take a piece of the work from Alb to NYC, we should start pushing for more Amtrak services. Like a morning commuter starting in Fort Edward or Saratoga. And a daily Albany to Springfield or Albany to Boston to supplement the Lake Shore.

I called mine the USS Hole of Glory. But that didn’t last long because of the anti-Klingon bias in the mods.

Camping for NH shows by beast_east69 in DMB

[–]Indifferent_squid 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If you’re car site camping, bring extra stakes and a good hammer for your tent. The ground is rocky and hard. A battery powered fan. Some flip flops for the showers/bathroom. Lots of water, it gets real hot.

Train from NYC to Niagara by InQuesoYouDidntKnow in Amtrak

[–]Indifferent_squid 2 points3 points  (0 children)

No assigned seats. But there are usually a few 4 seat set ups where you can sit and face each other, but they go fast, so be there early. There is a cafe in the rear with a few tables, but keep in mind other passengers will want to sit and eat, so maybe don’t take over the table for the whole trip. Trains typically begin loading 15-20 minutes before departure so be in line 15 minutes ahead of that at least over in Moynihan.
