Hi Karen

I did Chicago to Los Angeles a few years ago. Went first class but I am afraid not equal to our first class. Had a private cabin which was pretty small. Had loo and shower but you had to sit on the loo and pull a chain to get a shower. Good experience. I would think things are better now. I have an American friend who is a driver for Amtrak. He drives up the west coast from Portland (Oregon) to Seattle. Train is called the "Cascades". He says its a good run.

If you do go across Americs and go through Las V egas drop off for a couple of nights. Quite extraordinary place and well worth a visit but not for a holiday.

Hope you have a nice ti me if you go.

Tony
