<p>[quote user="VerMontanan"]You need a road trip. To Northern Montana. In the winter.[/quote]</p> <p>I'd never take an Amtrak LD train. I get already impationt when a DB ICE train is 20 minutes late and I miss my connection because there is only 8 minutes transfer time. But luckily the next connection comes within one hour.</p> <p>I also said in special corridors there might be use for locals.</p> <p>In the UK those once daily trains are called ghost trains. BBC explanation:<br /><em>There is no single definition of what constitutes a ghost train, although the general consensus is that it’s when a service is so infrequent, the train becomes effectively useless.</em> <a href="http://www.bbc.com/future/story/20150723-why-britain-has-secret-ghost-trains">http://www.bbc.com/future/story/20150723-why-britain-has-secret-ghost-trains</a><br />Regards, Volker</p>
