And yet somehow in my currently limited Amtrak experience, I haven't taken a train from St. Louis yet. So far, Union Station in Chicago is my base of operations, as I've taken a Wolverine to Ann Arbor and an Illini from Champaign. Thankfully that's going to change on May 10th, since I'm going to take one of the early morning Texas Eagles (and as a bonus, meet up with a friend that I've been trying to see for about a year or so now).
While I've only been an Amtrak rider since last October 29th, I've been a casual railfan for probably the last twenty or so years of my life. For some reason I didn't start acting on things until May of 2009, when I first stepped onto a Chicago Transit Authority "L" train, but if I could I'd take time to cover every mile of Amtrak I could.
I found this board through some random Googling I was doing earlier tonight and decided it'd be well worth joining. ^^
