Rail Passes Purchased

We, well most of us, Brien is supposed to do it today, have purchased our rail passes for the trip. 2 weeks this time for Green Car of course. The value of the Green Car cannot be avoided and though the price is significantly higher in up front cost having a wide seat with no smokers and a quiet car is so very worth it. Plus we never ran into a point where we couldn't get a seat on a train. This is the last significant step before the trip itself which is just over 7 weeks away at this point.

Just wanted to update this post to say we've all already received our rail passes for the trip.
