People laugh when I tell them I am taking a 19 hour train from the greater New York City area to Chicago. They don't realize that it is actually faster than flying. The train leaves in the early evening and arrives in the morning. If I took an evening flight I would arrive close to midnight. Then the next morning I would need to spend another hour in traffic getting to downtown Chicago.
Of course nobody gets this. It's unfortunate there are almost 50 non-stop flights a day from NYC to Chicago but only one overnight train.
