Bruce and I have become evangelists for train travel. We all say we want to see America. But you see very little on a plane. And in a car you’re mostly stuck on interstates, driving with all its hassles, eating one fast food meal after another. Whereas on a train, you can go to sleep in the plains of Montana and wake up in the Rockies. Or go to sleep crossing the deserts of the southwest, wake up to farmland in Missouri, and cross the Mississippi River during lunch in the dining car. It’s a trip of a lifetime.
