[Philmont] Amtrak

I guess it depends on which AMTRAK operator you talk to, I specifically stated I was a advisor with a Boy Scout Troop going to PHILMONT near Raton. I never had anyone question it in the past 2 trips on the train.
 
I emptied the fuel bottles on SAT, have been sitting out side in my yard every since. Can smell NO FUMES at all. The stove are being cleaned as we speak too.
 
THANKS to the other veteran train riders, I was starting to worry if I had to mail ground. We check in on JULY 24, leave on the train next SUN
 
WHEW.................
 
FINAL Individual pack check in my yard today. Found a few wanting to bring deodorant and one thinking he needed to bring AXE body spray (cologne), too many clothes too. It was time well spent to do it again. Hope their packs stay packed until next SUN>
 
thanks for all of your help and advise.

  I am traveling by Amtrak and do not see where they do not take stoves- just no fuel. As long as the stoves are dry and empty. I have done this twice with no problem. Anyone else have issues with Amtrak???? I thought the restrictions were for Airline travel. Thanks, Jerry Thompson
