Every year I visit my folks and some friends in Phoenix for a few weeks, typically anywhere from late Jan to Early May. Normally I fly but last year I made a road trip out of it and had a blast. This year I was half-kicking around the idea of taking a train (the Amtrak Southwest Chief) but most of my friends think I'm a crazy for tossing around the idea. Personally I think it would be a cool experience getting your own roommette (I'd fly back). The route would be from Galesburg to Flagstaff and then I'd rent a car and make the beautiful drive down from Flagstaff to Mesa. /csb
Anyone travel by train in the US anywhere? Good/bad times? Obviously Alaska but any contiguous US routes worth experiencing?
