After returning on a successful westbound LSL trip with my 5 year old son who is crazy about trains, I started to think about a 2010 trip to make it an annual Father/Son trip (hopefully!).
Was going to consider the Denver-Emeryville portion of the CZ westbound, but for the dates in April I was checking it was more for the Bedroom accommodation than to just get the bedroom from Chicago-Emeryville. Well, a for more clicks later and I just went further east. Now we're booked on Boston-Emeryville via LSL and CZ. Roomette for the Viewliner and then the Superliner Bedroom for the remainder.
Hopefully I'm not asking too much of a 6 year old next Spring to enjoy 3.5 days on a train. I think he will be thrilled and it'll be a Christmas gift since I won't be telling him about it until then.
Maybe by then the Diner Lite car will be on the Boston-Albany consist and full Viewliner diner on the remainder of the LSL route.
