Y'all are very kind to share your vast experience with those of us who only rarely use a train.
I've booked my family of five, one old guy (me), and four of my kids (16 to 21), from Richmond to New York City for a little outing for them to see New York. Going up on the Silver Star, boarding at about noon on Wednesday, New Year's Day 2020, and returning Saturday, January 4th from New York on the Silver Meteor.
I'm guessing sitting together on the return to Richmond will be fine, since New York is the point of origin, but wondering if any of you have any thoughts or tips on the trip to New York from Richmond?
I haven't ridden one of the Silvers in about 25 years, but remember how much more comfortable it seemed compared to the regular Northeast service I've used since. Perhaps just nostalgia on my part.
Most of my children haven't ever ridden a train and I specifically booked these trains (with your help) to try and give them the best possible impression and experience of train travel, so they might enjoy doing it later with their own families.
Wondering if sitting together on the way to New York is likely or not, and in addition, any tips or tricks y'all would like to add are much appreciated. I'm afraid I'm a bit of an information junkie and love having the best experience possible using others knowledge and experience. Thanks very much in advance!
