I would still love to ride it one day. <br /><br />I have very similar feeling of wants and a bit of disappointment in the US's lack of a robust rail system, throughout the country.elnshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09654199835246576704noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6407290539855175918.post-21709372202963506072014-11-21T19:28:52.868-07:002014-11-21T19:28:52.868-07:00I love the train and do use it to go into DC when ...I love the train and do use it to go into DC when I go alone.

I have always enjoyed Amtrak and would travel that way any time. I love the pictures of you sleeping and cruising for photos. It is much easier to talk to friends and enjoy a trip on a train than on an airplane.

Brevard County is holding it up because they are angry that the tracks go through the county, but they won't have a stop there. <br /><br />I would definitely take the train, if I could. <br /><br />Love the pic of you sleeping on the train. I bet the rocking of the rails puts you right to sleep.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6407290539855175918.post-49443790796765868052014-11-21T07:38:52.541-07:002014-11-21T07:38:52.541-07:00Fun photos!

And as a child we took the train from my hometown in Minnesota into Minneapolis quite often. But that passenger train stopped running when I was a senior in high school.Sarahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06412341664506380343noreply@blogger.com
