    Emeryville to SFO

    Hello all; I'm considering a trip cross country and then flying home and my biggest question about the trip is getting from the Emeryville station to SFO area for a hotel room and my flight back home.  I'll be traveling solo, most likely with a carry-on sized bag or maybe one a tad larger. ...

    Day trip to DC

    I have a day trip coming up from NYC to DC taking the 153 and 158 with a reserved coach seat. I've never been to Union station in DC and will be catching the Metro to the ballpark for a game. I have about 2 hrs. scheduled between arrival and game time and I figure about 2 hrs on the other end...

    Eurasia by train.

I was somewhat surprised that you could conceivably go from London, England to Beijing, China by rail in about 10 days. I was also surprised...

    For those of you who have gone to East Glacier

    I am looking at car rentals when I arrive and Avis is twice as much as Dollar. I see that Avis is right at the station and Dollar is 1/2 mile up 49. Is it a reasonable walk up 49, are there cabs? I really can't see spending $400 more just because Avis is closer.

    Can't decide what to do

    My original plans for next summer were to take the train cross country NYC-LAX then drive to Vegas and fly home. I have now gotten the idea of flying into Glacier Park International Airport, renting a car and driving through the park and staying in East Glacier for a week so I can explore the...
