Passenger Trains > Colonial Crafts Cross Country

Mr. Bob Lowe the owner of the Colonial Crafts has purchased former Boston and Maine sleeper Salisbury Beach. The Salisbury Beach has spent many years on the west coast in charter service but now it is time for her to return to the east coast. The original plan was to bring the Salisbury Beach east alone but we've decided if there is enough interest we will run the Colonial Crafts from DC to LA and meet up with the newest car and bring them east together! In this changing climate for PV trips we feel now is the time to get as much use as possible out of these historic gems because we don't know what the future holds. Trip details are in the classified ads section.

Best wishes that all goes as you plan. Has Amtrak already approved your movement?

This is an "End Point to End Point" move, so Amtrak *should* approve it without any problem.

It seems most fitting that Salisbury Beach should leave Los Angeles accompanied by the Colonial Crafts with which it ran on occasion, during its busier times, out of LAUPT. I hope your move goes through. It will be nice to see the Salisbury on the rail again.
