Amtrak engineers

i was wondering if amtrak had specially trained engineers for the acela service and electrified service.

Yes, they have to.

E-mail Rick Gates if he doesn’t respond to this topic in a reasonable time; there are at least a couple of forum participants with direct experience in this.

The answer is yes.

Sort -of related question… How does Acela in Microsoft Train Simulator compare to the real thing? Was wandering if Microsoft did their homework or if it wasn’t even close.
