For many years, railroads would give out free route guides to passengers... so they would know where some of the most scenic and historic stretches of the train route are. Unfortunately, a few years ago Amtrak faced tightening budgets and stopped giving out route guides. You can still learn about all of the exciting landmarks out your window by purchasing a route guide from the Midwest Rail Rangers Store. We feature books written by Robert Tabern, plus Eva Hoffman. Continue a traditional of railroading by having your route guide in-hand on your next train ride!
