Thanks so much, this is what I needed to get started with my planning. Stopovers are an important part of the trip and some towns (Mystic 2x) have already been suggested but more are welcome. I have the system timetable and maps but I may have more questions. Living in Oregon I thought...

Thanks so much for the suggestions for ME., CN. and the towns to visit. I had planned to ride the Vermonter and the Adirondack, so a stop in Battleboro is an option. I notice there is stop for Burlington on both trains (Essex Jct and Port Kent) but I don't understand the connection, can...

This summer I will be connecting from the SWC to the CS and as a solo traveler looking forward to dining in the PPC. My question is the reservation process. Is it the same attendant who takes the dining car reservations or someone else?

When traveling on the Cascades I day checked my bag at PDX and was charged $4.00. So I just wanted to know if that was a standard fee. I guess it varies per station?
