Amtrak commercials

I saw this commercial on YouTube for Amtrak. Do any of you know of other commercials for Amtrak from the 80s?

I think the "All Aboard Amtrak" slogan lasted from the mid-1980s to the early 1990s.

The early "There's Something About a Train That's Magic" slogan was the best Amtrak ever used.

The early "There's Something About a Train That's Magic" slogan was the best Amtrak ever used.

That was originally a lyric from the "All Aboard America" jingle (it's at the beginning of the commercial I posted above), but it was later "extracted" to serve as a separate slogan. Here's a 1993 New York Times article that mentions it: TWA and Amtrak emphasize creature comforts, not prices

They should make a commercial this year using this one here:
They should replace the ending with a statement that they have been connecting america for 50 years.

 

[zephyr17]

Connecting less and less of America for 50 years.

 

[Dakota 400]

Connecting less and less of America for 50 years.

Let's be positive at this point in time and expect that the "winds of change" are in the air.
