Have you ever taken a trip by rail?

[debidoo]

I am very excited at 64 to be taking my first trip albeit short by rail to visit with my sister-in-law for a week. It is just from FL to SC but I am a hermit and a miserable one I figured this will get me out of the house.  Later she and I might go on a long trip by rail up into canada.  Have you ever taken a trip by train and did you enjoy it?

not a "trip" per se...just a ride to/from where I needed to go...lol

I have, it was great. I traveled about 100 miles and I was able to watch a movie during the train ride. It was a great experience and I didn't have to drive. It's definitely recommended.

No I have not, but I will one day.

I have but not since I was a kid travelling with my grandparents who are afraid of planes.

Last year we went to London and took a side trip to Paris on the EuroStar under the English Channel at 185 miles an hour. It was very cool and we enjoyed it just because of the uniqueness (not much to see). There was a lot to see once we got there.

I traveled by train when I was stationed in Germany. I enjoyed it.

Enjoy your trip!!
I did take Amtrak years ago and enjoyed the experience.

Once and I didn't like it at all!  Maybe it was due to the lack of ventilation.
