I took Amtrak from Lancaster to Phila. daily for a three week business affair. Cab to the Omni’s front door..piece of cake. What a difference between that and fighting the traffic. Many collegues came to meetings huffing, puffing and complaining of traffic..and late ta boot! The other difference was being calm and clearminded on arrival..none of the fluster from driving.

Exactly right. I've flown from Portland to Dallas and have ridden the Amtrak from Portland to Dallas (and back again). I much prefer the Amtrak. I also like the rooms that you can get when taking that kind of trip, too. It's great having your own room, with plenty of space in your quarters and your own shower there, too... :-)
