Hi
I'm planning to take the Silver Meteor to Philadelphia after my vacation in Orlando in November. I'm from the UK and though have used Amtrak to travel between New York and Washington, Philadelphia and Boston on previous trips, this seems like a good opportunity for the full long trip experience.
I can join the train at Kissimmee or Orlando, and plan to get a viewaster roomette.
What can I expect? In particular, any pros or cons between Kissimmee or Orlando for boarding.I'd be grateful for any advice, information and words of encouragement to convince me I'm doing the right thing.
Time is not an issue and it seems like a perfect way to unwind after a week with the grandkids in the theme parks, before a more sedate stay in Philly.
