Kev,

Good info, thanks. We are considering this, and not sure if my aging Miata is better than my aging R1100 RS.

Tom, thanks for shedding the light on this opportunity to add a very interesting way to cross the country without the thousands of miles of in saddle time. I’ve got several ridding buddies that wants to go from the east coast to the west coast but don't want to spend 3 weeks to a month in the saddle.
Great thread!!

So bottom line, what is the costs, travel time and accommodations?   I've never heard good reports about the food even on the scenic trains.

I am curious if there are other routes than DC - Fla. 

thanks

Amtrak lists the DC to FL route as it's only auto train

Let's just the food quality is not on the same planet compared to the old days of the Super Chief and such trains. Back then the food was all grown and produced by the Harvey House people. The had a large facility and 80 acres of farmland in Newton, KS for decades. Even bottled their own Coke Cola.
