Please add the following to my totals:

March 1, 2007: St. Cloud, MN - Chicago, train #28, 482 miles
March 1 - 2, Chicago - Charlottesville, VA, train #50, 807 miles
March 2 - 3, Richmond, VA - Ft. Lauderdale, FL, train #97, 1033 miles.

Bus between Charlottesville - Richmond, VA, 69 miles, March 2 *

March 9 - 10, 2007: FTL - WAS, train #92, 1275 miles
March 10 - 11, WAS - CHI, train #29, 764 miles
March 11 - 12, CHI - SCD, train#7, 482 miles.

Total mileage for this trip: 4843 miles.

* this bus mileage is excluded from the total mileage above.

First, your prior submission for the trip taken from St. Cloud to Columbus was entered, but due to a brain-cramp by the keeper of the miles, the last segment did not credit to your or the group's totals. That has been corrected. Second, the Thruway bus from Charlottesville to Richmond does count and is included. So...

Two minor corrections. Mileage PDX-SEA is 186, one whole mile less. And, it is 2V, not V2. IATA V2 is assigned to the Karat Joint Stock Company, Russian Federation (I was curious). See:

Most interesting. An Airline headquartered in Nizhny Novogorod (ex- Gorky). Learn something new every day Thanks!

I knew it is 2V! First a transposition typo and then a cut and paste. Oh well.

BTW, according to the Spring/Summer 2007 Amtrak printed Timetable The distance between PDX and SEA is 187 miles! Must be that fault between PDX and SEA that shifted a little. That is where I got the 187 from.

Hey Bill, Can you register the following rides for me please. I used to do this a bit more a while ago. So it was good to finally get back on the rails this weekend
