Hi! I am new to the forums but have been lurking for awhile now. I really love Amtrak and riding trains and was introduced to them by my grandfather who refused to fly commercially and only rode the train. I'm taking a 2 week trip all around the country coming up in January all on the train( except for a pesky mega us from Atlanta to NO due to track work) and I am super pumped. it's fun reading all of your guys knowledge and experiences!
