Great videos and loving what everyone has shared regarding there Amtrak in this thread. One of my biggest regrets was not buying an Premier Amtrak Genesis Proto 3 like @MELGAR has in his second video or an AEM-7. I elected to go for the Nicholas Smith Exclusive NJT P40. Nice engine but finding passenger cars that aren’t Atlas is nearly impossible.
That said, Ive picked up quite a bit of Amtrak since my first Amtrak Command control engine in the summer of 2018. Have 4 conventional Amtrak’s: Williams GP-9(my first engine, got it for Christmas of 99), RMT Amtrak Buddy, mid-90s Lionel Amtrak switcher that runs on AC or DC, MTH AEM-7 Proto 1.
My first passenger cars were Amtrak. Bought them with my mom in the mid-90s- Danbury, Temple and the Vista dome. 12 inch size
bwfore I left my house, I was taking some pictures of my collection. All of my Amtrak Passenger cars(except the first 3 mentioned above) are shown as well as my Amtrak Command engines:
Bottom shelf, right left: Lionel Dash-9, K-Line F40PH with TMCC, RS, Cruise 4, MTH F59PHI Proto 2(most recent Amtrak engine) 2nd shelf up: Set version of the Lionel HHP-8(not like @gunrunnerjohn ‘s separate sale with all the bells and whistles) with 18” amfleet passenger cars and add-on 2 pack.
