Guys i e mailed AMDELIVERIES this morning regarding pigeon's and this is my reply we all moan about the poor service from amtrak and these people provide a better service and nobody hardly used it this is the reply

Hi James

I am glad that our service was noted as such but it is unfortunate that we have had to end our pigeon service as there were too few requests being made for our service so the occasional request from one part of the country to the other would end up costing us more than we were charging.

Many apologies but thanks for your enquiry

MANY THANKS
MIKE
AM DELIVERIES

So if we all want a better service than amtrak we need to get this company to see that it is worth it for them

I have used them and would have continued to do so - The biggest thing for them is to raise awareness in the services they offer pigeon fanciers - I dare say many people will look at this thread and wonder who the hell they are.

Must admit this is the first I have heard of AMdeliveries,did they do much advertising,looks as if its to late now anyway as the guy says in his letter  that they have had to end the transporting of pigeons.

your right,,,who are they,never heard of them !!!

nor me

Here is a link to their website http://www.amdeliveries.com/index.html?_ret_=return it was added to the Pigeonbasics.com links section about a month ago, I'm sure I've seen a post on here about them before

AM deliveries is also a member of the forum, heres the thread that was advertising them http://forum.pigeonbasics.com/m-1214428431/s-0/#num0

Maybe if people are interested about this service they should email the company to log their support and maybe the forum members can help them

It was posted on the 20th of July, hardly enough time to see if they had any real customers or compete with Amtrak

Well I don't know what their advertising was like, but it could have been a matter of not many people seeing their post on here and with everyone using Amtrak however bad they are, the new company or any new pigeon courier company really needs to do lots of advertising to show whys its better than Amtrak, hopefully AM deliveries will keep going and maybe they'll be at Blackpool  

They advertised for 5 weeks in the BHW just got of the phone to the owner's wife and am trying to get hold of the owner to see if he is willing to give it another run they are on a much smaller scale than amtrak but the service is far better will keep you updated on the service

You should also tell them to get in contact with Richard, maybe he could help with advertising on the site

yes i am and also pigeonglobe have offered them advertising on there so we will wait and see what happens

Does anybody know if the RPRA fund amtrak in anyway or have a contract with them as it maybe possible with the backing of the RPRA that this courier service will be good for us pigeon people

also these people if willing to give it a try again could help us when and if the stray centre gets up and running throughout the country

they should get hold of Frank sheader hes one of the biggest senders of pigeons in my area also they should of tried Louella then they would be more noticed by the fancy

As far as i am aware Louella get a cheaper rate with Amtrack due to quantity of birds they send

I have just spoken to mike and if he gets a possitive response from us he will be willing to give it another try he has asked me to post the e-mail address on the site's and he would like anybody who will be willing to support him and use his service to let him know so come on guys and girls if we can show him it is wotrth it we may well be able to get all birds collected and delivered in safety instead of worrying about the dreaded AMTRAK nightmare stories

amdeliveries@hotmail.com

and am deliverys could not put a tender in ? if they did then they would be viable

Quoted from OLDYELLOW

and am deliverys could not put a tender in ? if they did then they would be viable

what does that mean

it would depend on whether or not Amtrack and louella had a contract in place for a fixed period of time or not ?

well the ball is in our court now if we can get him to see it as a worty buisness he will give it another run time to see if the amtrak nightmare stories will carry on and if the people on here are going to give these a try so all is down to us now

very true but if there scouting for buisness i think they need to contact the biggest users , the odd one here and there doesnt make for a big buisness plan
