RE: [Philmont]: Amtrak regs

Interesting list, I guess for those crews coming to Philmont via Amtrak
the debate about cell phones, GPS units, digital cam-corders etc. is
pretty much settled by #7 though. And the last items pretty much takes
care of adults who don't meet the weight requirements.
 
Sorry, I'm just in a fiesty mood today.
 
Happy Trails,
