   Hello Dave,   
       
   DD> Me and light aircraft get along just fine. Airliners - not so much. I   
   DD> prefer Amtrak for long distances. Plus the food is better, too. Bv)=   
       
   Well, that is if there "IS" Amtrack.   
       
   The northern line which runs from St.Paul (I think) to somewhere Seattle uses   
   Burlington-Northern tracks where priority if given to freight trains. A full   
   day's delay on arrival is not uncommon.   
       
   I once drove a Trailways bus transcontinental from LA to NYC (and other   
   routes). 4 days. Recently I looked into doing it again for fun, busses with   
   wifi etc ... it was costlier than flying 6 hours.
