or have planes taken over in that regard? what are amtrak sleeper trains like?
I took amtrak from wisconsin to chicago and then ann arbor, but they werent overnight. just ordfinary trains
>>226238064Im really curios about what super long train rides are like there specifically, say los angeles to chicago, it seems like a fun adventure
For me it's the Cardinal
>>226238103They're expensive compared to flying or Greyhound, like 2-4x the cost if you're going coast to coast.
>>226238165and people say the us has no sovl
>>226237972I threw up in the seat next to me on the train from Pittsburgh to New York
>>226238227trains more expensive than flying? thats unusual, I took the trans-siberian sleeper train in russia a lot when I was younger and it was basically the only way to get to remote cities and villages in a reasonable amount of time without costing too much
>>226237972Yes, Amish and Mennonites love it
how feasible is to plan a trip between the main cities of the northeast without needing to rent a car?
>>226238557new england and the northern east coast in general is one of the most walkable areas in the US, it shouldnt be too hard
I did from Texas to Chicago
>>226237972>or have planes taken over in that regardnot anymore
>>226237972It's alright. It does the job I guess. Feels really gross when you're in it though idk why but the air is stale and it all feels off>>226238557Easily feasible but hours might get a little weird
>>226238513All of the train tracks are owned and operated by the freight train companies, passenger rail already runs at a loss even as a government owned enterprise.
