This is the open topic for submitting all 2011 Amtrak Mileage Tally trips through November 30. Submit your trips as replies in this topic. Please provide:
- the date of the start of travel for each train (or Thruway bus);
- the train number (or train name if just one train of that name a day);
- and your starting and ending points (station code or station name).
- If this is your first time posting to the Mileage Tally, please provide your actual name in the posting or by PM to me. Your name will not be posted by me.
I'll post back your confirmed mileage and your standing among the participants.

PHL-LNC Train #645 Keystone
LNC-PHL Train #652 Keystone
PHL-NWK Train #134 Northeast Regional
I recall some issue with the Lancaster mileage so I'll defer to you. #134 is the oddball Thursday-Friday only train. These 4 trips when accounted for will put me over the top for Select Plus.
Stay tuned, not done for the week!
Thanks!

Bill,
Yesterday was my clinching of Select Plus, and today was a sort of a 14+ hour victory lap that earned absolutely zero points. Please credit me with the following:
11/11/11 NWK-CVS Train #51 Cardinal 330 miles
11/11/11 CVS-NWK Train #50 Cardinal 330 miles
Two excellent trips, both on time, and with good crews with the exception of a seemingly disinterested waiter on #51. Both sleeper attendants were excellent, going well above what one might expect.
Thanks!

By the way, if your SAC trip was Sunday, then it looks like we crossed paths out there somewhere just east of Martinez - my wife and I on 737 coming back west from SAC and you on 732 heading east. Small world. I skipped OKJ visit of the 40th Anniversary train. The train ride was enough Amtrak for me, and more than enough for my wife.

Yeah, you're right of course. I looked at the wrong page of the timetable for the numbers. Afterall, the ticket stubs don't have any train numbers on them

Sorry about that. Yes the trip was indeed on Sunday the 13th. And the trains were 728, 732 and 743. And so we did cross.
That was probably my last Amtrak trip for the year, since I am not around in this country for too many of the remaining days of this year. Just 2.5 more weeks in the US, rest is abroad, if things go as planned. Doing a Britrail Pass based jaunt around England over the Thanksgiving weekend.
