Five Years of Train Magazine

               Five years ago I had a dream- A dream to learn more about the trains that I have a passion for and to share the knowledge I glean with others. This magazine has made that possible and I couldn’t have done it without all the help and support of others. I would like to thank the many writers who contributed work to Train Magazine over the years, the people who have e-mailed me to tell me as soon as the railroad stories break, the advertisers who have helped to keep subscription rates low and most importantly all the readers who make the magazine possible.              

               My favorite event in these five years was covering the beginning of the Acela Express service. Granted, it isn’t as fast as its European counterparts, but it still is impressive. I also have enjoyed meeting many people involved in different facets of the railroad world and to share that common feeling with everyone else who can’t look away as the roar of the train is heard in the distance.

               This particular year has been an exciting one for Train Magazine. The highlight was last issue’s exclusive interview with former Presidential nominee and current Amtrak Board Vice-Chairman Michael Dukakis, who took the time to explain his views to me. We also took on this new format, which we will keep for next year.
