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 five million-plus readers the real breadth of the US, from the people transforming cities to the companies revitalising manufacturing, plus the subcultures the news ignores. Personal stories and poems, photo essays and artwork make a compelling case for exploring the country by train.
