It was my first time on Amtrak also. But I did a long train trip on Pullman cars with my mother and three sisters in 1961. From Roswell, New Mexico up to Tenino, WA - near Oly, they didn't have a station then. That was cool. The club car smelled of tobacco, men were playing cards. I slept pretty well on that train, but then I was a kid.

That's where my mother grew up, my dad stayed home and worked, she wanted to see your family. It had been years.

It doesn't go that fast over here not sure why, I don't think it went more than 60 to 70.

How were the meals?
