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.

Date: 2008-05-09 03:51 pm (UTC)(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.
