Wish Amtrak did that! On another topic, German-American researchers must cope with the fact that from about the Zollvereinzeit, and especially after 1866, all Germany was often referred to as "Prussia" in American official records. So if our records say "Prussia," they may mean "Lippe-Detmold," or Sachsen or Thuringen u.s.w. It can be very confusing.
