Could someone more knowledgeable than me please clarify something that has appeared on the page. It is stated that the Adirondack used to run overnight as the Montrealer, however I always understood that the Montrealer ran concurrently with the Adirondackm, and via a different route (that of the present day Vermonter).

Consist edit
How about a plain English translation for this term "Consist"? The context makes it seem synonymous with "equipment", but the section is labelled Consist and equipment, so which is which? Remember that not only train experts read these pages. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 72.229.55.73 (talk) 23:37, 4 October 2009 (UTC)
- Does the wiktionary:consist definition (of the noun, not the verb) help to explain the term? 67.86.74.107 (talk) 12:46, 24 July 2010 (UTC)
Route map edit
Could somebody please verify the route map at Template:Amtrak_Adirondack? It appeared a bit botched, as there was a Hudson River crossing between NY and Albany/Rensselaer, while both of them are on the same (east) side of the Hudson (and there is a Hudson river crossing north of Albany). Similar with the Junction to "Empire Service, Lake Shore Limited, and Maple Leaf" that turns off the Adirondack from south to the west - it appeared twice. If you follow the track on google http://maps.google.ca/maps?f=q&source=s_q&hl=en&geocode=&q=Albany-Rensselaer+Amtrak,+Rensselaer,+NY,+United+States&sll=42.654541,-73.72736&sspn=0.100368,0.161362&ie=UTF8&hq=&hnear=Albany-Rensselaer+Amtrak&ll=42.641031,-73.741093&spn=0.100389,0.161362&t=h&z=13 it appears that the Junction and the Bridge should only appear north of the station, so I removed the southern pair. Additionally (and in agreement with Empire_Service_(Amtrak),Lake_Shore_Limited and Maple_Leaf_(Amtrak/VIA)), the junction to those lines is north of Schenectady (and north of the Hudson River bridge), so I reordered them.

I attempted to correct the map on ShareMap, but it doesn't seem to have saved my changes. Both the PNG version in the article and the ShareMap version it links to are incorrect between Rouses Point and St-Lambert, as they don't follow the St-Lambert subdivision as they should (article text is correct). The subdivision is labelled correctly on OSM (it's the one that diverges to the east northbound at Rouses Point, not the one to the west). ~SpK 16:11, 1 July 2016 (UTC)
