Pros: We loved relaxing and not dealing with traffic, and seeing some wildlife. Cons: I am slightly hearing impaired. If there was a board the announcement could be posted on it would help. I had a difficult time hearing what all was said. Tips: When traveling from Vancouver, WA, you don't need to come 45+ minutes ahead of time to check luggage. You bring it on with you and put on a shelf. We came quite early (first time), and the station wasn't open yet.
