Go figure, I make the rezzy, then find out I have a work-related trade show that weekend, in San Diego. Pfffffffffft.

Here's my schedule, if anyone is looking for rooms on these trains, let me know, (email me at pilchermd AT verizon.net) and I'll coordinate my CANX with your attempt at booking, but I need to CANX within the next couple of days, 'cause it's on the company card......

I've got the EXACT same routing - even the OTHER bedroom on the Cardinal!Posted Image We could open the door between - and make it a party suite!Posted Image I'm not taking the penthouse suite this time!Posted Image It won't fit in the Baltimore tunnels. (More reason to avoid Baltimore!Posted Image)

Are you talking about the whole trip, or just the Cardinal segment?Posted Image

Not to scare anybody off, but I do have the other bedroom on the Cardinal. In fact, I have an empty berth on the Cardinal! PM me if wanted. (The CS and CZ segments are spoken for.)
