Last month (June 16 - 24) I made an 8-night trip around the U.S, taking advantage of the low bucket prices. I thought I’d share some pictures I took along the way. I mostly took videos but I snagged a few shots, as well. I was booked on the Capitol Limited from WAS to CHI but I switched it to the Cardinal since we arrived in WAS in enough time to make the connection.
Out of the 6 trains I was on, 5 were on time... only the Starlight was late due to a freight train accident. The service was good to great on all of the trains. I’ve already talked about the food in other threads, but I was fine with the meals offered. Not like the old days, but I didn’t starve, and I wasn’t riding for the meals, anyway. I am also happy to say that all of my rooms (3 bedrooms, 3 roomettes) were in good working order, with decent air flow, and all were clean, though I wiped down some areas before we got underway.
