I had a funny one recently, my wife and I like Woodford and we each ordered one to have with our dessert. I didn't have a $10, so I figured the server in the dinning car worked really hard, so I left a $20. Next thing I know, he comes up behind my wife and I, saying you left something. Before...

Amtrak may not have disagreed, but their check book might have. Neighbors son used to work at Amtrak and now works for Brightline and he said that Amtrak had many great idea, but the accountants had to constantly say no due to trying to keep expenses down to the bare minimum. To be clear, I...

I very much enjoyed it heated, but I enjoy things warm, vs. things served at room temp or cold.

My wife and I tried these from Costco and for whatever reason I cannot explain they came out gross. They had an odd texture not like at Starbucks. I am curious how you prepared them to make them come out properly because we followed the instructions on the box. They were so bad, my wife...

Then you really would not enjoy The Tail of the Dragon 318 curves over iirc 11 miles.

No, a 2010 BMW E60 M5 with the S85 V10 engine. Though having a Dodge Viper would have been nice.

I thought that I would update you all with my experience on the Auto Train and manual transmission car. After having lunch at one of our favorite restaurants in Sanford, we drove over to the Auto Train station. After waiting to reach the car check-in area, the first Amtrak car employee said...

After taking an AMTRAK overnight train a few months back and enjoying it more than we would have ever expected, my wife and I are toying with an idea to take our car on the AutoTrain to VA and drive the Skyline Drive and generally through the Shenandoah valley over a few days in one of my sports...

Not necessarily, if you had enough dishware, cutlery, you could simply store them dirty and then send them to be cleaned once the train arrived at its terminus. This is how airlines handle dishware/cutlery, the dirty dishware and cutlery are loaded into carts and the inflight caterer takes the...

Regarding tipping, it was only because another couple left a tip that I realized that gratuity was not included. I passed a table with a $10 sitting on the table, so I walked back pulled a $10 from my wallet and handed it to the employee clearing the table.

I was flying DELTA First Class from ORD and my seatmate and I were chatting throughout the flight. Over the conversation she mentioned that she and her husband had recently rode AMTRAK and were underwhelmed by the Flex Meals. She then mentioned that she is a Manager for LSG SkyChefs and a...

A friend had the new lasagna and he said it was good, better then the previous offerings. He said the worst part is the dessert parfait thing is just way too sweet.

I fly a fair amount in First Class and it really depends on the airline. DL really stepped up it's First Class catering network wide(with a few exception, if you are curious, you can Google, DELTA Sad Box) starting late last year, it really started to slip pre-pandemic and it only got worse...

While I highly doubt that was my wife and I you wrote about, we had never ridden the train prior to my wife having surgery and the surgeon instructing her to not fly for a month after the surgery. We were both pleasantly surprised by the entire experience, my wife really appreciated the ability...

My wife and I do not generally ride the train, so we did not really know what to expect. However, due to my wife having a surgery recently and her surgeon advising her to not travel by air for a month, we ended up taking the train. We rode on the Silver Star and were very impressed with the...
