One of the best trips of my life was by train Chicago-Seattle then Seattle all the way back to NY. It forever changed my perception of the country and its size and scale and beauty. The variety of travelers was amazing -- military, Amish, you name it. I did it of necessity but am very glad I did; now places like Minot, ND are real memories, not just dots on a map. I also once took the train from NY to Minneapolis to make sure I got there for a paid speaking engagement as planes were likely to be grounded due to bad weather.
