@HNTBCorp @Amtrak Amtrak News Release: media.amtrak.com/2023/10/amtrak…

Today, #HNTB joined @Amtrak for the official opening of a newly updated station in Yazoo City, Mississippi. The project is in support of Amtrak’s efforts to update facilities across the country to increase #accessibility. HNTB led the #design of the station's new low-level platform, which provides important ADA accessibility and features to enhance the passenger experience. Congratulations to Amtrak.

@barkerptp @streetsblogchi @Amtrak @Metra @activetrans @bikewi We are many months away from the complete refleeting of the Hiawatha trains.

@streetsblogchi @Amtrak @Metra @activetrans @bikewi What’s the timeline of the Venture cars running on the Hiawatha Service? @AmtrakMM

It's unfortunate that Amtrak reduced roll-on bike capacity on its Chicago-Milwaukee Hiawatha service without alerting customers. But fortunately help is on the way in the form of new bike-friendly Venture railcars. chi.streetsblog.org/2023/08/05/ann…

Just like taking an extra few seconds to #SeeTracksThinkTrain, making the #RailSafetyPledge is more than worth the time. This way, you'll be around for more #FridayFun @Amtrak. I did it this week and so can you. #StayOffTheTrax lnkd.in/gDWnw4E4

@ChiUnionStation no more laminated cube or UFO-ish kiosk in the Great Hall. #FridayFun is an historically accurate clock atop large displays for train status and directions. Thanks to the team and more improvements coming here @Amtrak from our #CapitalDel…lnkd.in/gKWT5Jy5

Yeah, there was some tearing up this morning as we reached a milestone for 110 mph @Amtrak schedules between #Chicago and #St.Louis @IDOT_Illinois @UnionPacific. Ray Lang Derrick James Joe Shacter lnkd.in/dP4vzzb2

You can take the @OLInational #RailSafetyPledge, just like the Amtrak senior leaders. More in the Amtrak Media Center and in this #video. #SeeTraxThinkTrain lnkd.in/gDWnw4E4

Take time during the #juneteenth holiday weekend to make an @Amtrak travel plan with #FreeKidsFares in July-August-September. lnkd.in/g_HGmDUZ

#FridayFun in Carbondale. Groundbreaking in the #LittleEqypt sun to replace the 1981 @Amtrak station we've outgrown. For more info on this great #multimodal project, see the link below. @IDOT_Illinois @CarbondaleIL Amtrak Connects US Dr. David Handera Ed…lnkd.in/gnMN342b

We're doing a lot of #safety messaging for our upcoming new @Amtrak service between #NewOrleans and #Mobile. This #LTE from @Steve Predmore has a universal message. @OLInational @StayOffTheTrax #SeeTracksThinkTrain @SouthernRailCms bit.ly/3NzekPe

Come work with us @Amtrak by participating in our #hiringevent, virtually or in person. lnkd.in/g6wQzRcN

Another reason to not drive (I-)55. Roger Harris excerpt: "Between the shorter schedules and having more than half of all the new state-owned @Amtrak Midwest ‘Venture’ railcars now in service, we are completing a full makeover of t…lnkd.in/dHRJeksS lnkd.in/dgw77ER3

@Amtrak VP Nicole Bucich briefs the @SouthernRailCms this morning on #YallAboard #GulfCoast and #CrescentExtension (I-20) progress. We also talked about our ongoing @StayOffTheTrax safety campaign with @OLInational. Not #FridayFun, but important topics i…lnkd.in/gM_VKZ_h

#YallAboard further east on the I-20 corridor took us to Monroe, La., and Vicksburg and Jackson, Miss., where hopes are high - for good reason - @Amtrak and @SouthernRailCms will land a @USDOTFRA grant to extend service to a long-neglected region of great…lnkd.in/gKzt7Fk7

#YallAboard Louisiana mayors in #Shreveport and #Ruston want @Amtrak service and we are working with the @SouthernRailCms to apply @USDOTFRA funds to see what it will take. More briefings tomorrow. Amtrak Connects US lnkd.in/gXAXE9Eq

2nd in series. Why is my territory so big? Because of the people who have and those who want @Amtrak service. We're briefing across the I-20 corridor next week in La. and Miss. with Nicole Bucich, Thomas L. Stennis III, Knox Ross @…lnkd.in/gdqRhV4J bit.ly/3WLQ7Ic

1st of a series: I'm sometimes asked why I've hired out twice at @Amtrak, totaling now 23+ years. It's the #people and the #places. Our #ELP folks have delivered great service, even when cards are sometimes stacked otherwise. An #honor to represent them a…lnkd.in/gSUSuCTr

Great team, with inspiring and empowering leadership from Robert Eaton, too. lnkd.in/g2SvuiUm

#FridayFun day plus one, since this video with @Amtrak CEO Stephen Gardner is worth it. lnkd.in/gNT9RAKc
