Starting next Wednesday, passengers will be able to check firearms for the first time in almost ten years.

Congress is requiring the new policy.

Amtrak says the firearms must be unloaded and put in a locked container, but some passengers say they won't be riding easily.

Firearm owners must inform Amtrak officials 24 hours before their departure.

It applies to most Amtrak trains, but the firearm ban remains in place on Capitol Corridor trains.

Same rules as applies to flying on a commercial aircraft what is so sinister about this? Common sense sometime prevails.
I remember when you could fly with guns in your carry on. Ahh, Freedom where are you now.


Traveling with Special Items
Firearms & Ammunition



http://www.tsa.gov/travelers/airtravel/assistant/editorial_1666.shtm

You may only transport firearms, ammunition and firearm parts in your checked baggage. Firearms, ammunition and firearm parts are prohibited from carry-on baggage.

There are certain limited exceptions for law enforcement officers who may fly armed by meeting the requirements of Title 49 CFR § 1544.219. Law enforcement officers should read our policies on traveling with guns.

The key regulatory requirements to transporting firearms, firearm parts or ammunition in checked baggage are:

You must declare all firearms to the airline during the ticket counter check-in process.

The firearm must be unloaded.

The firearm must be in a hard-sided container.

The container must be locked. A locked container is defined as one that completely secures the firearm from access by anyone other than you. Cases that can be pulled open with little effort do not meet this criterion. The pictures provided here illustrate the difference between a properly packaged and an improperly packaged firearm.

We recommend that you provide the key or combination to the security officer if he or she needs to open the container. You should remain in the area designated by the aircraft operator or TSA representative to take the key back after the container is cleared for transportation. If you are not present and the security officer must open the container, we or the airline will make a reasonable attempt to contact you. If we can't contact you, the container will not be placed on the plane. Federal regulations prohibit unlocked gun cases (or cases with broken locks) on aircraft.

You must securely pack any ammunition in fiber (such as cardboard), wood or metal boxes or other packaging that is specifically designed to carry small amounts of ammunition.

You can't use firearm magazines/clips for packing ammunition unless they completely and securely enclose the ammunition (e.g., by securely covering the exposed portions of the magazine or by securely placing the magazine in a pouch, holder, holster or lanyard).

You may carry the ammunition in the same hard-sided case as the firearm, as long as you pack it as described above.

You can't bring black powder or percussion caps used with black-powder type firearms in either your carry-on or checked baggage.
who said there was anything sinister about this?
"who said there was anything sinister about this?"

Maybe I missunderstood what ConspiratusUbiquitus was refering to?
