Ultimately the allowing of carry in national parks was added to the credit card reform package which Obama pushed for. He was forced into allowing concealed carry in national parks or else he would have had to veto his credit card reform act.
As to Amtrack, Senator Roger Wicker (R) of Miss attached the amendment to allow weapons as checked baggage as part of a $1.5 billion transportation funding bill. The amendment passed the senate 68-30
Obama had nothing to do with this.
