Although I had my doubts, it turns out that on the train you CAN get up and walk around.

And they have big seats.

And food at a reasonable price (compared to airlines).

AND POWER OUTLETS!

And it costs $43 round trip from Chicago to Kalamazoo, which is approximately $300 less than flying, and about 40$ less than driving.

But of course! I'm surprised that you're surprised!

(I've been using the train between Chicago and Dearborn or Birmingham MI for over fifteen years now. The only risks really are delays due to freight trains, which can be a real pain. On the other hand, the tracks have gradually gotten better, so when there are no freight train delays, the trip can go really smoothly).

Also a feature: no airport hassles.
