I don't know.austinrealtor wrote:I know nothing about Amtrak or train travel in general, but let's say you're traveling from Texas to Phoenix, AZ (is there even such a route?). If traveling by car, you're OK to carry in Texas, New Mexico, and Arizona with a Texas CHL. What's to stop you from carrying on Amtrak? Are there security screenings like at airports?
We traveled from Philadelphia to NYC on Amtrak, and I left the guns back at the hotel in philly because I knew it was no-go in NYC but if I was going from, say, from Philly to Pittsburgh I would have carried right onto the train without even thinking about it. Or what about Austin to San Antonio? Again I would not have even thought about disarming for the trip (although it takes twice as long as the same trip by car). I don't recall a security screening like there is with a flight, or checking baggage, when I did the NYC route.
