I put in a map, but it has since spaced itself out. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Tlantanu (talk • contribs) 22:48, 5 May 2008 (UTC)

This article is on Amtrak's Regional. It should cover the entire service, all endpoints to all endpoints. --CComMack 02:40, 25 November 2005 (UTC)


[edit] Name Change

Are we absolutely sure about the name change or could it just be a clarification in the timetable? While it is in the timetable, the Amtrak website doesn't make any mention of the new name and there has not been a press release. --69.123.112.18 (talk) 21:31, 3 May 2008 (UTC)

  • There are no other trains anywhere in the Amtrak system. There's nothing to clarify. A lot of things will probably still refer to the train as simply a Regional, but it seems the official name is now Northeast Regional. I don't think any press release has to be made about such a small name change either. Murjax (talk) 21:41, 3 May 2008 (UTC)
