Amtrak does not really allow people standing in the vestabule, but Im sure if you ask the flagman working the last car, then he/she might not really have a problem. Dont just go out there and video thinking that you are allowed to be out in the vestabule. Photography IS ALLOWED, but being in the vestabule isnt unless the train is stopped. When do you plan on riding Mike? Im in DC on Fridays and Saturdays as I run 89 down to DC although that could change at anytime...
(That said, I've seen some conductors really not care (one even commented on the view), some politely remind me of the rules and one who was just plain rude about it. In all cases though, once reminded, I complied. It's their train after all, I'm simply renting space on it for the trip.
