I can't believe this Bullet Train forum has generated more than 20-responses! I guess train travel is important to some of us.
As for the new Amtrak Metroliner service: what would make it attractive to me is a decent fare and the chance to earn airline miles (or do a program where you fly one way and train it the other.)
But I DON"T THINK a separate forum on trains is needed.
