Peter Burgess COMMENTARY
I have always enjoyed train travel, and it depresses me that US passenger trains have been in decline for all my adult lifetime. When I was growing up in the UK in the 1950s I followed American steam technology as closely as I followed British steam. In the winter of 1967 I crossed Canada from Montreal to Vancouver by train (Canadian National) which was memorable in so many ways ... so much more interesting than travelling overland by air. I have travelled from New York to Montreal by car and bus many times over the years. Generally speaking, there are usually better views from trains especially along great rivers.
