Today, from Amtrak’s website:

      I’m not sure why the current map doesn’t show them, but no, the stations are not gone. I ride the Amtrak from Chicago far out west quite often, it still stops in all of the places that the old map says.

      The “after” pic isn’t showing all the stations.

        The other difference is some routes get 2 trains a day and it probably cost $5k to go cross country

          2 trains a day would be an improvement for many routes, a lot are 1 train a day or 3 trains a week.

          Yeah i didnt mean to make antrak sound good. Its a laughable grid even for 1979 and to not have evolved since then while lowering frequency and increasing fares its just a joke.
