Last Stop on GMA's Whistle Stop Tour

September 19, 2008 4:41 PM

Abc_whistle_stop_080917_ssh The train pulled into the station in Washington, D.C. this morning, ending Good Morning America's Whistle Stop Tour. But we still have many states to visit before the November election. We're also lucky enough to spend the day in Maine, where we visit with lobstermen who make a living farming the sea.

Learn more about Maine this evening on Nightline. And check back to see where 50 States in 50 Days continues to take us - whether by planes, trains or automobiles.
This morning set up camp at the Newseum, a tourist attraction that opened in downtown Washington earlier this year. Joining the Whistle-Stop tour, Michelle Obama and Jill Biden spoke to us about what's on tap for women if their husbands become president and vice president of the United States.
In other travel news about our journeys and yours: In the airport, learn how cutbacks will cut into your travels. In D.C., salute the people we met this week in towns along the rails. And in New York, join us as we say goodbye to a legendary landmark: Yankee stadium.

Why don't you call your train ride the Obama express. I used to be an ardent fan of your show but you have become so biased, it is hard to watch.

Why did the whistle stop tour end? I was under the impression it was going to stop in 50 states in 50 days.
