Re: Where is everyone?
Back in the dinosaur years of the late '70's I planned a trip to SF from NYC and back via train. Spent a lot of time reading about all the different trains that ran long distance routes back then: the Super Chief, Southern Crescent, 20th Century Limited, the Zephyr.....gosh the names and the places they invoked made me heady! Watching movies like "North by Northwest" and "The Thin Man" dinna help either. Unfortunately, the friend I was planning to visit (met her on a train traveling between Paris and Barcelona, LOL) decided to elope and the trip was cancelled. Somehow in the next 30 plus years I've never found a good enough reason to go past the Ohio River and most of those trains have become shadows of their former glory:(. I've transferred the dream to RV traveling though.
