All Aboard Episode 019: Auto Train Pt. 2-A Legendary Comeback
The Auto Train was a great idea, and it did very well...but by 1981 it was bankrupt and out of business. But a white knight was found in Amtrak, specifically W. Graham Claytor, Jr. who was the driving force in resurrecting the train and making it a shining star in the company's fleet of trains.
