I saw this little game on another internet forum, and I thought it might be fun to try here. The game is simple. I'll write a sentence, and the next person is to change just one word to make a new sentence. The third person changes one word to the second sentence, and so on.

To keep it "on topic" each new sentence should be related to Amtrak or trains in some way.

The sentence is:
Traveling on Amtrak is a great way to see the country.

On UP 'Riding on Amtrak is a great way to renew your childhood passion for counting freight cars as they whiz by.'

On CSX 'Riding on Amtrak is a great way to count freight cars lying on the ground beside the tracks.'

Riding Amtrak, "Every trip is an adventure!"


That covers good or bad but the bad ones are far more interesting.
