Pros: The toilets are so nasty. They smell so bad it almost had me throwing up. There is not fan or vents to air out and nothing is clean during the ride. Cons: The toilets need some cleaning and some way to vent….

Amtrak

Pros: The seat was incredibly comfortable and the dining car was stocked with many well priced options. Cons: The timing of the train was significantly slowed down because of work on the tracks, and the staff did a mediocre job of communicating what was going on. Tips: Make sure to leave additional time at your destination in case there is an unplanned slowdown.
