From THE WASHINGTON POST: "From about 1915 to 1970, 6 million or so African Americans moved form the South to the North, leaving behind mostly rural farming existences for industrialized cities where they hoped to find opportunity and, generally, better lives. Many made that journey via passenger and freight trains, so it's no surprise that Amtrak has chosen it as the subject of an exhibit. The show will go up in Washington's Union Station next to Gate A on Saturday (8/20/2011) and will remain there until Sept. 26. The show's final stop is Baltimore's Penn Station where it will display Sept. 27 to Oct. 26 (2011)."
