    Dog growled at the conductor!

    Aloha I have had several discussions with some experts on service dogs. What I find disturbing is there is no standard on what id a service Animal should have. Secondly if one does an Internet search you will find a number of companies that issue phony IDs.

    X-Train Chugging Along?

    Aloha Interesting, I wonder when they took that picture. It looks like it was shot just after the cars arrived in Vegas. About a month or so ago the weeds were about 1/3 of the way up the car. About 2 weeks ago they had been trimmed. 3 days ago I saw a food commercial they shot about the meals...

    RBBBBTrain - Las Vegas

    Ringling Brothers, Barnum and Baily Blue train. Once a year they come here, This AM they had the Elephants by the LV Sign. Shame they play in a building instead of a tent. But a building is more comfortable. They travel in a train that is more than a mile long.

    Advocating for improved passenger rail service

    Aloha It's been a bunch of years since I was at the Fountainbleu in Miami. I was leaving by train and the hotel had no clue Miami had train service. The hotel bellman had to call Amtrak to send a taxi to the hotel as none of the taxis that serviced the hotel would take me.
