Amtrak Cascades
Pros: My nephew loves trains, so we enjoyed seeing all the different ones as we passed them. The scenery of the water and the fall colors was great! We departed late, but made it on time for arrival for a coordinated pick up. The announcements for stops is efficient. Thank you! Tips: Buy your tickets early - I had to change the date of our trip because the origianl date was sold out.
