[MEDIA=youtube]Q26ruNz5iKY[/MEDIA]Usually I take the Amtrak Cascades or just a bus, but this weekend, for a multiple-day trip, I took the Coast Starlight. Unfortunately, in December, and being two hours late, what I saw of the Willamette Valley between Albany and Vancouver was mostly shadowy. Also, a lot of the places that the railroad tracks pass through are the type of places that railroad tracks pass through---lots of warehouses and sheds and autoyards, etc, which can be a disappointment after all the scenery between Redding and Eugene.In this video, I say that while I can usually find some sort of point or conclusion, in this case, I just took the train and reached my destination. Maybe it is getting too late in the year to be smart?
