...airline similarity is even more striking in the slightly old, but clean #Acela Express 2205 to Washington Union Station. Overhead lockers, the seat design, the way seats are numbered... And announcements:
"We'd like to extend a special welcome to our Amtrak Select customers."
"Take a moment to review the safety card in the seat pocket in front of you."
Let's go!
Something a bit weird: the armrest to the side is higher than the one in the middle - which seems too low for my arm length. It makes you sit leaning either way. Doesn't feel balanced.
#Baltimore - not much to see from the train except this nice MARC double decker.
Encountering another MARC in #BWI Thurgood Marshall Airport. It has a bike car, how progressive.
#Baltimore #Diesel
Note the funny but slightly directive announcement on my train: "This is the 2205, THIS IS NOT MARC. 2205 TICKET ONLY. IF YOU HAVE A GOLDEN OR RED TICKET STEP OFF! THIS IS NOT YOUR TRAIN"
