Howdy fellas!
Joined the forum a few minutes back. For some reason it's not allowing me to sign in with my username yet (I guess the new member check system also runs late in true long distance Amtrak trains fashion), so posting this as a guest.
I am an Amtrak lover (and a rail fan on a broader scale). I haven't had much of Amtrak travel so far- only two trips on NE Regional between Philly and DC but hoping to change that over time. Of course I have done plenty of train travel in cities across US if one includes the commuter trains, light rails and subways- The T in Boston, Subway and LIRR in New York, NJ Transit, SEPTA, MARC, Metro in DC, CATS in Charlotte, MARTA in Atlanta, Metrolink in Los Angeles area and now DART and TRE in Dallas. Moved to US just over two years back from India and back there I have several thousand miles of train travel under my belt (have plenty of pictures and videos from there, let me know if anyone is interested) Sadly Indian Railways doesn't have a frequent traveller program so can't tell you how many miles I have accumulated!.
I am currently living in Dallas, TX. Moved here just a month back after graduating from Virginia Tech with a Masters degree (Any Hokies out here? I saw at least one guy's signature having a VT logo), so pretty new to the area but if there are any Amtrak fans or rain fans in general in the DFW metro area meeting anytime for trips, trainspotting, rail photography, anything that involves trains, do give me a shout out and I'll join in!
