Media pack

The National

The National quite literally embodies Amtrak’s motto: “See where the train can take you”. Celebrating the romance of cross-country travel, the magazine shows its 5 million readers the real breadth of America, from the people transforming our cities to the companies revitalising American manufacturing, plus the subcultures you don’t see in the news. There are personal stories and poems, and photo essays and artwork, all making a compelling case for exploring America by train.
