I am surprised there were so many people on the Amtrak train. But then maybe there were so many because gas is sky high.

The LD trains are popular for people who want to sight see along the way.

Maybe there are extra train passengers both from sky high gas prices and from flights being cancelled willy nilly.

My wife and daughter took Amtrak on a vacation several years ago. Carolinian from Charlotte to Washington DC, then another train to Chicago (visiting a friend), then the Empire Builder from Chicago to Seattle to spend a couple weeks visiting her aunt. They loved it. Service was good, no airport hassles, the scenery was stunning across Montana in particular. Unfortunately it’s expensive to get a sleeper setup, which you need on a trip like that.

Not surprised... The SWC is a popular train. Prayers to the victims... I have a friend who uses the SWC weekly...
