Fur Cons: The Amtrak Effect

I have been aware for quite a few years that many furries often take Amtrak to various conventions. This is no secret, there have been YT vids on the subjects.

But recent events namely Amtrak’s New Route The Borealis, could directly effect 2 fur cons. 1 I will be attending Furry Migration and the other Aquatifur. That last one might not be familiar, Aquatifur takes place in Wisconsin Dells, and frankly that train stop isn’t that far from the hotel.

The Borealis which now runs daily from Chicago to St. Paul, stops at Wisconsin Dells.

You might see where I am going with this, with it now being easier to get to said convention how will this effect their numbers. Some might quote Fur Squared which recently moved from Brookfield to Milwaukee. There numbers only increased by 300. But keep in mind this move surprised a lot of furries. More than even I expected, but I think the true test for some will be next year. But this year and it still being months away, both Furry Migration and Aquatifur could be effected by this new route.

Which I will be on, and will be reporting, and if I see a fursuiter on a train O M G.

I know that is a lot of wishful thinking. But I will be there at least at 1.

This is going to be so much fun.
