Sorry to hear about the no AC Situation, I can understand where both of you would be upset. I hope Segment 4 went better.

Nice trip report. Sorry about your eletrical situation. A cross travel partner can really effect a trip. I had a similar situation last year on the CZ. I was ready to "help" him off the train between stops.

Thanks for your report. You pictures of LA Unon Station make me homesick. I grew up in Huntington Beach, CA. I used to work in downtown LA and ride the Metrolink's Orange County Line. I'd pass through LA Union Station on a daily basis.

Now I live in New England, and miss the Spanish Mission meets Art Decco interior of LA Union Station.

I, native of S. CA, agree with you about LA Union Station. I now live in NM. The station is so splendid. Everytime I go inside, I never get tired of awe of architecture. Luckily, my folks still live in S. CA, so I still have chance to ride on SWC.

Very nice and detailed report. Your details remind me of taking a trip of Coast Starlight few years ago. Luckily, I had a chance with Pacific Parlour. Sadly, the flu found me.

Chi Amtrak Fan......when is part 4? I feel like "Ralphie" from the Christmas Story waiting for the "Don't Forget To Drink Your Ovaltine" line. Very interested in the EB report!
