<p>I took the Empire Builder from Milwaukee to Portland last December. I took the Texas Eagle from Dallas to Chicago and a Milwaukee Service train from Chicago to Milwaukee. I stayed over night in Milwaukee, as opposed to Chicago, because the cost of a hotel room in downtown Milwaukee was much cheaper than a similar hotel room in downtown Chicago.</p><p>You might check out parking at the Milwaukee Airport. If it is anything like most airports, the long term parking would probably cost $6 - $8 a day. Amtrak has a station that serves the Milwaukee airport. You could drive to the airport, park the family buggy in long term parking, and take a Milwaukee Service train into Milwaukee, where you could catch the Empire Builder.</p><p>I live in Georgetown, Texas. When I want to take Amtrak from Austin, I drive to the Austin Airport, where I park for $6 a day. Parking at the Austin Amtrak Station is a bad idea, unless you have an old car that you want the thieves to take off your hands. Then I take a city bus to the Amtrak Station, where I catch the Texas Eagle. If the train is late returning to Austin from the north, I catch a cab to the airport. I don't like being downtown in any Texas City late at night. </p><p> </p><p> </p>
