Message	I actually caught the "AutoTrain" from FL to VA. The trip up was fine (although sleeping on a train is impossible). The incident happened on the way home. My stereo was removed IN THE BOXCAR while on the way home (scratched the side of the car in the process). They hid the parts under a bunch of tire stops and left the interior of the car in shambles. The funny part was when they pull up with it at the terminal, they act like nothing was wrong! I did eventually get an insurance claim for the damage done, but, the point was that it happened in the first place. Amtrack is NOT a professional transporter...... you get what you pay for.
