Amtrak’s National Train Day
Yesterday was Amtrak’s first “National Train Day”, so we took the occasion to catch up with three of North Carolina’s Amtrak trains. The first was Carolinian Train 80, led by P42DC no. 178, spotted in Durham County. The second was the other Carolinian, southbound Train 79, in Elon, NC. P42DC no.6 pulled this train, which included an ex-Louisville and Nashville coach on the rear. Last was the Piedmont Train 74 at Burlington’s Company Shops Station.
