Amtrak has route guides in downloadable format on their website for even the Ethan Allen Express and Vermonter! Other "day" and overnight long distance trains are listed with route guides as well. They've been up for a while and most have been re-done.
Good resource, and glad Amtrak decided to put them up on the website so that if you don't get one on the train, you can at least download it before or during your trip (with WiFi access etc.).

P.S. I'll be doing a Coast Starlight SEA-EMY guide in the next few months and posting it on my web site.

I like the detail you have in your route guides, Rich. For example, in your route guide for the Empire Builder, you make mention places such as Sultan, God Bar, Lake Pend Oreille, and Sandpoint. Such are not covered or mentioned in the Amtrak EB route text.
If you do Seattle to Emeryville, I'm sure you will find a lot of ineresting sites to highlight. There is a lot of history associated with Klamath County (OR) and Siskiyou County (CA), not to mention other interesting places and towns in the 3 states.
