I love riding on trains. I just wished AMTRAK could have their own rails. The last trip I took coming back from Calif. to Washington State was shortened at Klamath Falls, Oregon. AmTrak then put us on a bus to come to Pasco,Wa. The problem was Antrak had to keep pulling off to the side to let the freight trains go by. Because of this we would’t have been able to catch the train in Portland, Or. to get to Pasco.
I took Amtrak from Lancaster to Phila. daily for a three week business affair. Cab to the Omni’s front door..piece of cake. What a difference between that and fighting the traffic. Many collegues came to meetings huffing, puffing and complaining of traffic..and late ta boot! The other difference was being calm and clearminded on arrival..none of the fluster from driving.
