OH YEAH......just finished a vacation trip around North America, US and Canada.Does anybody here ride on Amtrak just for the fun of it? I'll be taking the EB shortly not because I have business at my destination or to see someone, but because I work for an airline every year I get a pair of confirmed round trip tickets that expire after a year. Normally my travel benefits are on a standby basis only, so I'm at a 'use it or lose it' for these confirmed tickets.
Also, is there any benefit in which direction of travel I should take? I live in SEA and could either start my journey here in SEA or fly out to CHI and start my journey there. I don't want to miss any particularly beautiful scenery while the train travels at night. So I'm hoping the good people of this board will help me in my decision.
Thank you all
Let's see......Boston to Milwaukee via New Orleans.....makes sense to me!! :lol: :lol:I just visited Train Fest in Milwaukee on Saturday. Of course, I traveled through New Orleans to get there.
So I guess I ride for the fun of it!
