Newbie to this board,I wanna go from Chicago to LA in the last week of january or the first two weeks of february on the Texas Eagle as a change from the South West Chief to see new rr track.The posts that I have read don't paint the most glowing picture of the Eagle yet I read others that are humorous about the things that happen while on board and sound like it is more of an adventure to see what happens vs a train ride.I am taking the train because I like trains and don't HAVE to be at a certain place on time.
I know the scenery is not outstanding vs let's say the CZ but I enjoy looking out the window,with the conductor following behind me with a windex bottle cleaning up my face prints on the window.I am looking for new track mileage but also want a good ride with decent service....any thoughts on the CHI to LA trip?
Thanks, Bill
