What was it that got you into riding trains? Was it the peacefulness of speeding along at 80 miles per hour through the wide-open cotton fields of Virginia in your cozy coach seat or was it playing a game of cards in the Lounge with a group of newly made friends. Today our world is caught up in the need for speed; cell phones, cable Internet, airplanes, interstate highways, but at any point did you ever want to slow down and take a minute to reflect back on your inner self. It all happened by accident, but my first ride on the Auto Train I new would never be my last. Put aside rail fanning as a hobby, traveling by train has come to mean a lot more to me in this hectic teenage world of mine.
So my question to you is how did you fall into traveling by train? What moments do you treasure? Travel by train is certainly unique, a constant in time and even though there has been a jump in technology, the basics stay the same.
