man this is hot...can't use it but...DAMN...good deal. You guys in college should take advantage. If you bring adequate provisions it can be a blast to hang out in the view car, meet some people, and watch the world go by...

You sleep in your seat. You pay extra for the sleeper cars.

who would want to goto LA with all those pretentious plastic people, and who wants to ride a train. I suggest a good trip to Europe for around 2000

I wanna go, LA rocks. And if you want pretentious,go to europe after all the europeans invented it
A good train ride is something everyone should do at least once, I highly recomend the trip through the rockies, and the high sierras, beautiful

[Radracer]

Yeah, and you'll REALLY enjoy the trip through the bayou in Louisiana...especially the part where the train derails and the gators nip at your a$$. :Q

At least you have class!

I would love to go to LA, but 3 days on the train SEATED. How far do those seats recline? Can you somewhat comfortably sleep at night?

you mean like pretentious people who are too pretentious to ride on a train?

 

[richrz]

I hope there are showers. After three days you'd think everyone would smell not so fresh..

 

[pxc]

Wow, LA to Pomona for only $1.60 each way. That's a deal if there's a computer show that day. Saves on rip-off parking and gas.

 

[kalster]
