I am considering a trip on the Empire Builder in March--Chicago to Seattle or Portland. Ultimate destination is Phoenix, but time does not allow rail all the way. The fare and sleeper charges on the Empire are quite a bit better than the other Amtrak routes. So, I can fly from either Portland or Seattle to Phoenix and satisfy a long held wish to ride the Empire Builder.
A concern however is obviously the weather at that time of year. I am wondering if I will just see the black of night and the white of snow!! On a trip that long is it boring??
Any experienced Empire riders who can offer their comments????
