[Nfbf-l] Amtrak

[Merry Schoch]

Well, wait to hear what Amtrak had to say and their forced policy.  It will 
shock you all, and since Marion talked to them I'll let him relay it to you 
all.  He is having a home interview for his next guide dog, but he will have 
a message out by the end of the day.

Merry
