Amtrak's model train set at 30th Street Station still reporting delays from storm

Philadelphia, PA--The storm that covered some parts of the region in nearly two feet of snow last Sunday into Monday is still affecting the rail transportation network within the city. The Amtrak model train display in the concourse of 30th Street Station has been at a stand still and the miniature town's people have been unable to circle the town by rail for nearly a week now, stranded in their log cabins, churches, oversized Hess Gas Stations and undersized train stations. "I like to circumference the town by train, oh, at least 500 times a day," said GI Joe, who is too large to fit inside the Amtrak car and is forced to sit on top. "It helps me keep a close eye on the Smurfs and Skeletor ... who was a new addition to this year's holiday train display for some reason."
