Trains are comfortable, frequent and good value for money. Often overlooked as a method of travelling around America, we believe that "by train" is the best way to see the States. Customers can easily connect more than one city in a single holiday and travelling by train allows you to experience the real America and its people in a relaxed comfortable and fun environment".
