Fully updated to take into account route and timetable changes, this is the only book specifically designed for US train travel. Rugged charm sets the train apart from more mundane means of transport and its low environmental impact is of particular current interest. Pampered by helpful attendants, you can travel from coast to coast, explore the Rocky Mountains and ride directly alongside two oceans. Less expensive than flying and more comfortable than the bus, the train keeps you relaxed and in touch with an ever-changing landscape as the world becomes a framed but moving picture.

o The only book in print specifically intended for rail travel in the USA

o 37 routes crisscrossing the US and Canada

o What to see from the train window, plus where to stay and what to see once you alight
