Amtrak members hosting no passenger trains

[Twin Star Rocket]

Of the original member railroads who joined Railpax, these never had to host Amtrak trains:

Chicago & North Western

Central of Georgia

Northwestern Pacific (understandably so)

Norfolk & Western didn't host a train until the SHENANDOAH was inaugurated in the mid-70s.

Delaware & Hudson did not return until a few years after Amtrak and the State of New York started up the ADIRONDACK.

Maybe Grand Trunk Western was a later return.

N&W didn't host the Shenandoah, the B&O did. N&W hosted the Mountaineer, and later the Hilltopper.

Ah yes! I meant the MOUNTAINEER.

N&W also hosted a portion of the former Illini route between Champaign-Urbana, IL and Decatur, IL until the early 1980's.

If Union Pacific gets their way....

(Just kidding...I hope!)
