There’s something inherently romantic about traveling by train. Beyond the nostalgic nod to a time of women in coats and hair scarfs and briefcased business men in smart wool fedoras, there’s a chance to savor life at a more leisurely pace. Unlike the hectic endeavor of a car-crammed road trip, railway adventures allow everyone to take a break from the driver’s seat and immerse themselves in some predestination R&R. Chat with fellow travelers, keep your sunglasses on and nap, dig into a juicy read, or pop in headphones and watch the scenery unfold out the window. However you “conduct” your moments between points A and B, you’ll thank yourself for considering these advantages of train travel. All aboard!
