Amtrac Charge$ For Pa$$enger$ With Lot$a Luggage

It had to happen, and just at the time of year when train passengers are lugging more luggage, holiday gifts and other heavy stuff. With airline add-on costs ever rising into the upper atmosphere, it was only a matter of time before Amtrac got in on the racket.

Therefore, if you drag heavy bags aboard a train, you may expect a conductor or other eagle-eyed employee will nab you for extra charges. The current rule for free luggage is that each passenger may take two personal items that weigh up to 25 pounds each, as well as two carry-on bags that may weigh up to 50 pounds each.

Times Square, Manhattan NY: Beware Of Bare

Along with other sidewalk panhandlers dressed as Mickey, Minnie, Batman and Superman, tourists now have a new visual experience. Although the New York City mayor and police are threatening to arrest them, semi-nude ladies, wearing nothing but painted skin above their waists, are trawling for tips in the famous Manhattan location.

If your travels take you to the area and you’re confronted with the semi-nudity, offer a polite refusal or stop, pause, stare and make a contribution to the exposition.
