Amtrak Celebrity Sightings
I know...sounds like a bit of a parody...but since the airlines boards have them, why not one here.
I'll get it started... 7/25 -- Henry Kissinger, NYC Club Acela / 7pm NYC-WAS Acela First His assistant was checking in at the club in front of me. When asked if he had a guest, he said 'Dr. Kissinger will be coming shortly.' Soon after one of the fatigue-dressed mps that sometimes hovers Penn Station came in...assistant ran out, and came back in with Kissinger and two station cops. He grabbed some water and chips...went to the back corner and waited by himself just looking at nothing. His asst and the cops blocked the way toward him, so he was isolated. 6/24 -- Gabe Pressman, WNBC TV Didn't recognize him, but the conductor was overly excited for a local face... |

Acela is for fair-weather celebrity riders! I dined with Gene Shallitt (not sure of spelling) on the Lake Shore Limited in April '07 . (It wasn't a meal, but it was a very brief chat during the LSL's departure reception).
He traveled from Chicago to Albany and seemed to be a fairly regular rider. He seemed familiar with the diner crew and Albany station staff. |
