Does anyone know a site with photos and "nuts & bolts" info on the Genesis power source?

I may be showing my ignorance here but it seems that the "stop & wait" on freight trains is dramatically less in other states. OTP is merely an excursion in futility until the freight lines are curtailed.

This was to be my first time on Amtrak and my wife & I were scheduled to depart San Antonio at 6:00 A.M., Nov. 23, 2003. I was firmly convinced that a more civilized departure time would actually occur so that I would avoid getting up in the middle - of - the - night. After monitoring the Sunset...

I am scheduled to board the Sunset Limited at 6:AM on Nov. 23. As of 10:00 AM today Amtrak is estimating the departure time from San Antonio to be 7:34AM. Should I still be at the station for the scheduled departure of 6:00? Can the train make up that lost time. If it does make up that time...

Does anyone have any stories? I can remember that as a child in the 1940s growing up near a freight train route I would sit by the tracks and watch them go by.I would see people sitting in the cars with the door open and their legs dangeling.

I made reservations in August for a trip Nov.23-Dec. 1. Since then I have posted numerous questions --- some stupid some not -- but all of concern to me. You guys are EXPERTS and have satisfactorily answered every one of them.Thanks to you I now have a better idea of rail travel. THANKS!

I am booked coach on the Sunset Limited to Pensacola,Fla. leaving San Antonio,Texas on November 23. Although a lot of questions have been answered here, I still have a few that can only be answered once on board i.e. Will I be able to sleep in a seat? Will I be able to walk( use cane, have poor...

I am booked on coach already and I checked Amtrak's site to possibly upgrade. It gave me a price but does this mean that space is still available?

I walk with the aid of a cane and did not know what "lower level" meant when I booked on coach so I didnt request it. Will Amtrak penalize me and make me climb stairs or is the lower level reserved for passengers like myself?

I had thought the changes to the Sunset Limied's schedule went into effect Oct. 27 but checking Amtrak's webpage the schedules from San Antonio are the same until Nov.1.

Later this month, Amtrak hopes to gain 2 hours but at what price? Will they eleminate some stops or is this mainly on paper? It appears that the WB train is closer to the scheduled times than the EB train...at least in Fla.

My departure from San Antonio is 6:00 A.M. Does anybody have stats on scheduled departures for the Sunset? Needless to say a I am hoping for a departure time much later.

Does anyone know of a webpage devoted to the Sunset Limited?

I have already made reservations on the Sunset going from San Antonio, Texas to Pensacola, Fla. for Thanksgiving My tickets are for coach. I have monitred the price for about a month and its the same. Should I gamble on being able to upgrade once on board.
