I regularly get information on Amtrak which I will start to pass along unless
anyone objects:

The Carolinan, running between Raleigh and Charlotte started service on Sunday,
with a formal "christening" on Monday.  The train is a 403(b) train, with NC
paying 45% of any operating loss this first year and 65% thereafter.  The train
will be serviced in New York (the nearest maintenance facility).  Normal
equipment will be one locomotive and three cars (one a amcafe).
