I didn’t know it was gone. That was the best part of a train trip and without it, it wouldn’t be worth it.

Amtrak soon will be introducing a dementia-safe car, named the “Joe Biden.”

IF things go according to brandon’s plans, there will be a need for a lot more dining cars. EVERYBODY rides the train. Pretty obvious they have ZERO clue and have NOT looked at a map of the United States. EVER! Butt, millions of cars off the road. Get on the trains peons............... Next stop, vaccintration camp.

I’ve taken the Empire Builder from Seattle to Chicago more than eight times and they always had a dining car with nice service (2016 to COVID shutdown).

Went on a train 65 years ago as a kid. The only thing I really remember is that the train was very big and the finger bowls in the dining car.

This brings to memory the movie: “SILVER STREAK” for some
strange reason. What a ride! Crossing the nation by various methods. Then, back at the station in Chicago ...... January 6 is pale by comparison. People running for their lives (all acting, by the way).

Never experienced fine dining on a train. Do persons flip for the certain side of a table? Traveling backwards while eating might make for tumbling tummies.

I used to take Amtrak in the 1980s occasionally. I liked the Comfort as I was tall. Slowwwww travel compared to planes then though.

The reason why leftist and their Communist bosses love trains, is because trains follow the tracks, no varying, no side trips and they know where everyone is going, and what their destination and arrival time is. Everyone is packed into these tubes on wheels, all going to the same place. No independence, no side trips, no detours, etc...

Great dining car scene in "North by Northwest" (1958)

So . . . “Southern Living” makes a new article (dated yesterday) from an old article by the Washington Compost back in June?

Let’s Go Brandon is the current patron saint of Amtrak. If you follow the railroad industry press (yes, there is such a thing), you will find a level of political fellatio that will sicken you.

I live a mile from an Acela station and have no desire at all to use it.

"The Dining Car Will Soon Return to Amtrak Trains.

Yeppers, with a fresh supply of Haitian workers now you too can almost afford to get a burger and fries on the government flyer to.....somewhere you really don't want to go..
