I never even considered travelling via train before until my buddy told me it was the best thing ever.
I always assumed it would be cramped and stuffy.
Not to mention going by train just seems to take forever. He said you can’t beat the price and also it’s way more comfortable than I thought. We ended up taking a train across the country and we got something called a roomette. This is our own personal room on the train that has plenty of space for you to relax. There is also a thermostat that you can control so you have the ideal temperature control settings on your trip. I thought this was the most amazing thing ever. I have never been on a flight with such amazing comfort and I was thinking in the future, I have to travel this way so long as I’m not in a rush. Some rooms you can get your own private shower, but we didn’t have that. Still, even in the public showers there were plenty of towels and the showers were very clean. I wasn’t disappointed in the slightest and it was actually relaxing watching the scenic views at different parts of the train. There are public areas where anybody can go and it’s so amazing and wonderful. It was fun for me just listening to some music while watching the beautiful country while travelling at our pace. I also was able to sleep easy in our roomette especially with the A/C system cranked up a little bit. I had the most wonderful time just riding on the train.
