Amtrak Route Atlas
Gary at Resource Shelf shares this latest route atlas from Amtrak:
"The Route Atlas is an interactive map that allows travelers to explore all the places Amtrak goes. Travelers can search by station or route; or by plotting custom routes to see the various options Amtrak offers between any two stations." You'll need Macromedia Flash to use the atlas.
I can't tell the underlying technology, but am disappointed that once you find a route, you can't book a reservation. Hopefully, that's the next step. Macromedia called the site of day - for May 10. Amtrak was so proud they noted that on May 9!

Amazon Recommendations
Amtrak's previous online attempts at a network map have generally been large PDFs or JPEGs (see previous entry), but they've just announced a new, Flash-based interactive route atlas that is much improved over its static predecessors. Click on a route...
