"The Auto Train is celebrating its 25th anniversary this year. To promote
the fact that they can carry something besides Grandma's Crow Vic, they have
two new images plastered everywhere: booklets, pictures and posters - some
are 20X40 feet. They are done in a watercolor-type picture. Once depicts a
classic motorcycle, while the other is clearly a Sunbeam Tiger or Alpine.
Why did Amtrak pick an obscure 1960s British sports car over all the
interesting cars on the planet for this special celebration? In October of
07, many Sunbeams used the Auto Train to attend a Tigers United sponsored by
Tigers East/ Alpines East in Daytona Beach. I suppose someone at Amtrak
snapped a picture of one of the cars abort and decided to use the image.
Again, of all the great cars on the planet, to use a Sunbeam for this
promotion is astonishing.

Obviously Clark has never driven a Tiger or he would know why they chose it.
I would love one of the 20X40 posters.

You can pruchase the posters at the following site:

_store.amtrak.com/ProductList.aspx?did=5551_
(store.amtrak.com/ProductList.aspx?did=5551)

They are 24" x 18" on heavy stock suitable for framing. Shipping is rather
pricey, though.

FYI

I just ordered one and shipping was 5.69 to Utah. It looks like they got
their shipping issues fixed.

This was something I posted a while ago from the Artist, he has more expensive
prints etc. -

Hello Sandy.

You have a good eye.

For this AMTRAK ad
(attached), the agency wanted a sporty car but unrecognizable. So I
used my
friend's Tiger as reference. I've always really admired his car. The ad
agency had me
remove a couple of the distinct Tiger details (bumper guards).
I'ts a great car.

Thanks for your inquiry.

Regards,

Michael S.

Thanks for the heads up, Lynn. I just ordered a couple, and shipping
was about $10 to VA. A far cry from what it was a month or two ago....
