Each phase of Amtrak equipment is represented in HO scale models.
I spent limited time photographing them though.
Other aspects of railroading are represented on board including law
enforcement.
Station codes and baggage handling are shown below. You would not
want to see what happens to baggage at airports. While working at
John Wayne Ariport some years ago, I watched a ground employee throw a
piece of baggage under a plane. This is in no way a comment on
Amtrak baggage handling.
Railroads are dangerous places and safety is extremely important.
Come to think of it, imagine working as a land surveyor pounding a nail
in asphalt with automobiles moving by at 35 miles per hour only 5 feet
away. Trains are large objects that create their own wind which
can suck you towards it. Stay behind the line while on a station
platform.
