Our itinerary:
After much dithering and asking questions on this forum, I came up with this set of trains for several reasons:
I'll post the details of the trip shortly
- New York Penn station to Washington DC on Northeast regional train 141 business class
- Washington DC to Chicago on the Capitol Limited in bedrooms
- Chicago to Seattle on the Empire Builder in bedrooms
After much dithering and asking questions on this forum, I came up with this set of trains for several reasons:
- The chance of making connections seemed to be the best. The Capitol Limited seems to be the best in terms of on-time performance among the westbound Chicago trains
- The Capitol Limited has a full dining car instead of Cafes like the Lakeshore Limited and the Cardinal
- Finally, I have always been fascinated by the Superliners and wanted to maximize my experience
I'll post the details of the trip shortly
