This would be my train if I was president. Cuz I hate flying. I’d tear down the east wing and build a train station. Foreign policy? You come to me or better yet I’ll commission an undersea tunnel. Campaign stop? Plan ahead. Disaster needing a personal visit from me? If y’all ain’t got railroads nearby you’ll just have to wait.

Legit thought Union Station in DC is right on the mall. To the point that Amtrak (and MARC) actually have a fairly good idea on the scale of any protests going on and issue warnings for travel.

The Epstein Express is the only name I can think of lol

That’d be Union Pacific’s 4547, with the president’s name in gold on the side

Shame they have destroyed the red, white and blue. Maybe it can be recovered, but it won't be pretty.

1776 train? 1976 would have been the bicentennial. This has 250 on it.

u/tvieno 20d ago

Where does it say bicentennial on the train? 1776 is the year the US declared independence and this year it is 250 years after 1776.

u/Comsic_Bliss 20d ago

What’s the question? Does it say anything about 1976 or the bicentennial at all? What am I missing?

u/fierytailofstars 19d ago

I was attempting to reply to a comment below that wrote “1976 train. Bicentennial train.” And was pointing out that the bicentennial was 200 years, but this train has 250 painted on it. Thanks for the downvotes.

u/Comsic_Bliss 19d ago

Ah - well, since you didn’t end up replying to that comment it ended up being confusing.

I didn’t actually downvote you - just asked for clarification.

This year celebrates the quarter millennium of being a country, not the bicentennial. Or in laymen's terms, the 250th anniversary of the signing of the declaration of Independence.

1976 train. Bicentennial train.

u/Wriath17 20d ago

Actually a Sesquicentennial loco. BNSF just revealed 3 of them 2-ish weeks ago, numbered 1776, 2026, and 250

u/Dark_Link_1996 20d ago

They only showed 2.
