Hello!
I'm going to buy a USA Rail Pass for 30 Days, before I ask my questions I will post my Itinerary and all the info I have as to my approximate schedule. It begins at...
Segment 1: Fort Worth, TX (FTW) to Los Angeles - Union Station, CA (LAX) -- 421 Texas Eagle -- 2:10 PM to 5:35 AM
Segment 2: Los Angeles - Union Station, CA (LAX) to Oakland - Jack London Sq, CA (OKJ) -- 14 Coast Starlight -- 10:10 AM to 9:24 PM
Segment 3: Oakland - Jack London Sq, CA (OKJ) to Seattle - King Street Station, WA (SEA) -- 14 Coast Starlight -- 9:39 PM to 8:12 PM
Segment 4: Seattle - King Street Station, WA (SEA) to Chicago - Union Station, IL (CHI) -- 8 Empire Builder -- 4:40 PM to 3:55 PM
Segment 5: Chicago - Union Station, IL (CHI) to New York - Penn Station, NY (NYP) -- 50 Cardinal -- 5:45 PM to 9:58 PM

Segment 9 and 10: Houston, TX (HOS) to Kansas City, MO (KCY) -- 6022 Thruway Bus to 22 Texas Eagle to 311 Missouri River Runner -- 1:05 Pm to 2:55 PM

______________________________________________________________________________
Here are my Questions:
- Are all of these segments correct? (I.E. Am I wrong on one segment)
-Can ALL of these trains carry my bike, provided I give enough notice and reserve it?
-Is the cost of the bike carrying service included in my Rail Pass?
- Places to go in each city?
-I will have my own camping gear (Hammock, Tent, ect...) So Ill be camping most of the time where i can find a spot, but if i cant find one I need to find a cheap hostel/hotel. Any suggestions?
- NO CAR
Thank you for your time!
