Passenger Trains > Amtrak SymbolDate: 05/15/04 15:33 Amtrak Symbol Author: jim55 Does anyone know the official name ? Is it 3 sheets,wave, or splash or none of the above? Thanks, Jim
Date: 05/15/04 15:46 Re: Amtrak Symbol Author: AMTK157 I'm not sure if there's a very official name, but Amtrak's site says "Catch the next wave in train travel," so maybe it is wave!

Date: 05/15/04 19:08 Re: Amtrak Symbol Author: updrumcorps I'd always heard it was the "Flying breast implant" ;-)
Give me a pointless arrow anyday..... The new logo is the dumbest and most poorly executed, logo change ever. Date: 05/15/04 21:25 Re: Amtrak Symbol Author: ChrisG It is suppose to be two rails going off into the distance. I still prefer the famous pointless arrow.
Chris Date: 05/16/04 12:49 Re: Amtrak Symbol Author: DanV I thought it stood for Amtrak 3 Business Divisions at the time. NEC, Intercity, Mail & Express

Date: 05/16/04 16:06 Re: Amtrak Symbol Author: RevRandy It symbolizes "three sheets to the wind" - hic
Date: 05/16/04 20:54 Re: Amtrak Symbol Author: DanV Personally, I think it means that only three trains in the entire system run on time on any given month !!!!!!!!

Or... rails after an earthquake... Crashela Date: 05/17/04 13:30 Re: Amtrak Symbol Author: Viewliner_2300 updrumcorps Wrote:
