Nice picture, sorry the famous California sunshine hasnt been there for you, it's been a rough winter everywhere over here, usually Id say except in Hawaii but now they are bracing for an earthquake caused sunami! The lines are a pain but not nearly as bad as @ airports, Greyhbound is not our preferred way to travel for sure! Hope you can come back in the summer and see the small towns out in flyover country, back in the day there were tons of wierd,strange attractions in these little towns to get "tourists" to stop and spend some money! Enjoy the Zephyr, looking forward to your continuing reports,thanks!(Guess friendly conductors allow pictures from vestibule windows eh!)

Especially this one guy in AUS! :lol: (Although I wouldn't call him an "attraction" - distraction maybe!)

I resemble that remark! :lol: Ill have you know that the city I live in is a city on the rise, people actually want to move here, and we have two trains a day, one in each direction! :lol:

Nice Coast Starlight shots (in linked reports too), Caravanman, obviously north of Santa Barbara. Abandoned auto in one pic appears to be a 1950s-era Ford Edsel, an oddball classic awaiting rescue and restoration.

In May I'll be traveling from Minneapolis to San Francisco on the Empire Builder and Coast Starlight. I'll be returning home on the California Zephyer, with a little help from the Empire Builder again once I reach Chicago. I enjoyed reading your Blog. Gets me even more enthused for the trip. Thanks for the great stories and photos.
