Announcing the Amtrak Olympics
I’ve traveled over 100,000 miles on Amtrak and I’ve seen a lot of strange stuff. I’ve seen guys thrown off the train for smoking and public drunkenness. I’ve seen a conductor warn a penny-ante card game that he’d “better not see bills.” I’ve seen a roughneck open up a case of beer in full view of the lounge attendant. I’ve raced for my life to make connections. In that spirit, I propose the “Amtrak Olympics”, twelve competitive events for passengers: https://blog.goodbyeplease.com/2022/11/15/Amtrak-Olympics/
@amtrak-official do you have helpful tips for any of our competitors?
The Chicago transfer challenge should be easy as delays can be expected. With Indianapolis, talk to people it will keep you sane. With the Cigarettes please just don’t, don’t get lung cancer for the bit
