The reason why the Viewliner is not in the poll is because we're already getting a new set of them.
But what if Amtrak decides to replace the Amfleets with Viewliner coaches? That'd my personal choice if Joseph Boardman came down here and knocked on my door asking for my opinion
So my choice is Viewliners, and it's not in the poll.
Did the poll options get edited?
The choices really should be Amfleet II replacements, Amfleet I replacements, or Superliner replacements. Amtrak will not be ordering more Amfleets as such and the Superliner replacements, whether they are called Superliner IIIs or something else, will be based on the official bi-level specification.
I agree. And frankly in a thread titled "what do you think of the new viewliner design" I was initially expecting a poll that would have choices like "Definite Improvement", "No Change", "Change in the wrong direction" or some such. So I was a little confused to see Superliners and Amfleets. And then apparently my post upset the OP, which reaction I also did not understand. C'est la vie.
Instead of making two separate threads, the main topic is, if you haven't noticed, what do you think of the new viewliner design, or what would you like to see in it. I added in the pole as an extra last second. Since someone commented on why aren't viewliners' in the pole, I added that option. People on NWhikers fourm don't nit-pick this much. maybe its just a back country state of mind. And about the pole, it wasn't supposed to be about what you think of the viewliners, it was about what you would like to see next as a side topic. On a last note about "it should be ..... replacements" most likely, the design will stay the same, because the designs work for them. And no, i was not upset or mad, i didn't know that we couldn't use font bigger than 2.
Amen
