“A train journey is travel; everything else—planes especially—is transfer, your journey beginning when the plane lands.—GRB”
― Paul Theroux, The Tao of Travel: Enlightenments from Lives on the Road Pic from my train trip to NYC. Interested in riding the rails out West, have any of you taken train vacations? Thoughts? #currentlyreading #litsyAtoZ
TheBookDream My dad has traveled across the US and back on trains. He LOVES train travel. I understand there's boards for people who ride Amtrak for fun to trade tips on getting deals and whatnot 8y
Laura317 I've only ridden the Eurostar, but loved every moment. Sadly, there aren't passenger trains near me. 8y
8little_paws I have taken a bunch of train trips on Amtrak and plan on taking one around the entire country over about 2-3 weeks sometime in the next few years. Any particular questions you have? 8y

Dragon We spent three weeks in Italy and travelled all over on trains. It was a lot of fun. 8y
Howseldomtheydo @Dragon Sounds lovely. 8y
Howseldomtheydo @8little_paws Nothing in particular right now. Hoping to retire at the end of the year and looking forward to traveling more once my Husband joins me. Your trip sounds fun. 8y
Howseldomtheydo @Laura317 I wish we had high speed rail in the states. It's sometimes faster to drive. 8y
Howseldomtheydo @TheBookDream I will google that! 8y
