DonClark [:)] Your post in the other thread about AMTRAK should be repeated here. This thread could use some truth and facts. We seem to have a person that makes posts that contrdict each other. In one thread he sounds almost for something and then in another thread he is just totally against it. I very much like the fact that you choose to state the truth and not some half witted, hair brained nonsense. I did enjoy your pictures and your comments. I wish some people would just stop and consider other people and that other people do enjoy rail travel. You are so right, it is enjoyable and restful. It is nice to have some room, something you do not have on other modes of transporation. It most definately is not crowded. The cost is more than reasonable. The sleeping rooms can be a little high priced--but people must consider that is a premium service and would also be very pricey on an airplane. Some people take the train because they will not fly. Some people refuse to soak this in. Others take the train because they want to enjoy themselves and the scenery. On my last trip I flew because time was an issue. It turn out that I could have taken the train and did just as well. The airplane, one didn't arrive at all, and the other one they were going to put us on was 6 hours late. All in all we arrived at our destination about 10 hours late. NOT BY TRAIN BUT BY AIRPLANE. I really don't care to hear how fast airplanes are. Things go wrong in the airline industry just as much as they do in passenger rail. People cite Amtrak as always being late, not so, I check our train from time to time just for fun, recently it was 10 minutes early. I even made a post about it. But because the airplane was late am I going to say I will never fly again. That would be pretty stupid. I will fly if I have to BUT I would much rather take the train and enjoy the ride. Don, thank you again. Your comments are always welcome.
