The Exclusive On-Board Publication for Amtrak's West Coast Lines. The Tourist targets destination-oriented travelers. Issues are placed directly in the passenger seatbacks, sleeper cars, and lounge cars by Amtrak personnel.
Subscriptions are also available.
The Tourist is a high retention advertising vehicle with excellent residual marketing value. Issues are taken from the train by passengers and circulated to friends and colleagues. Each issue contains a reader response page including a chance to win free round-trip tickets on the Coast Starlight. In addition to the printed page, advertisers enjoy Internet presence on our Travel Links page. As passengers roll through that glorious countryside, they learn more about the travel experiences just outside their windows by reading Amtrak's exclusive onboard publication.
