Passenger Trains > Pics from Amtrak/Pullman trip.

These are from my Amtrak and Pullman trip San Antonio-New Orleans-Chicago-Kansas City. I posted a story on the trip on Oct. 9 so I will limit further comments.

#2, for any fans of author James lee Burke, New Iberia is where Dave Robicheaux and Clete Purcell reside.
#3, NOUPT, still looking good.

If your not a fan of Burke you don't know what your missing. Nobody flavors a story like him.

In picture #6, love the "How's My Driving?" decal on the street car.

#18 is a lovely shot of the back of my head!

Great photo-essay! And breakfast in a Full Dome...only on PULLMAN RAIL JOURNEYS!!! Which more of us should take and pay for that love riding aboard and sleeping aboard and getting "decent" meals aboard intercity passenger trains!

And I have no connection with PRJ, but let's hear it: "All Aboard PULLMAN RAIL JOURNEYS!!!"

Excellent pictures! Man, are those Pullman cars clean!!!! Good job Ed!
