2018 Autumn Leaf Presenter - Scott O'Dell (Shelton, WA) - "Amtrak Along Puget Sound"

This show is about Amtrak along Puget Sound between Reservation and Nisqually but mainly concentrating on the section between Titlow and Solo Point. Scott has been going to that area to take pictures for about 33 years now and it is always a fun place to take pictures. With Amtrak soon to be on the Lakewood line the waterfront will be a just a bit less interesting. It has been fun to watch Amtrak go from 1 F40PH and 2 Superliners. With only 3 roundtrips counting the Coast Starlight to a Siemens Charger and a Talgo set and 6 roundtrips. It is a shame that the best scenery on the trip between Seattle and Portland will be lost to save 5 minutes in transit time.
