They can gussy it up all they want these days with better food and pretty decoration, but it's still a night train and still miserable. Pace the "Man in Seat 61," but that's why people fly. And, yeah, I actually did make it from London to Istanbul.
Thank you
FallenPlat, and for the reality check on train travel. Your description is pretty much why Mrs. SFO777 is not very excited about embracing my train fantasies.

Thanks
seat38a. We were on that stretch of I-15 early evening on Thursday, May 27th.

I hope you and your family are doing well back in Denver and look forward to hearing more!
Thanks very much
WolfieG and for your kind comments. We're settling in nicely here in Denver and have almost unpacked everything.
