Unlike the movie, however, Samsung's potentially explosive Galaxy Note 7 smartphone is no laughing matter. The FAA banned the Galaxy Note 7 from all flights earlier this month, and international aviation agencies have since followed suit. Now, the Note 7 has also been banned from all Amtrak trains and even from thruway busses at stations where Amtrak operates.
