You must sign up on the Amtrak Guest Rewards (AGR) Site - if you dont have a AGR membership number, get this first. Then register (free) for the double points promotion (July-Sep).

Earthlink sign up normally earns 5000 AGR points, but with the double points promotion you get 10,000 points.

AGR points can be converted to ONE PASS miles (1 point = 1 mile), so 10,000 miles.

Hope this is of use to some of you.
