That was it. Pleasant trip, no hassles, slept most of the way. Dining car was ok, too. |

When I was doing a lot of train travel in the 60's.. I saved the money and tried to get some shuteye in the regular reclining chairs. Got tiresome on a cross country trip of 5 days. |

Thank God the nearest subway to here is at least 800 miles away. ;-) |
