Publisher's summary

Have you ever watched a train pass by and wondered how it feels to spend the night in a sleeper car? Have you seen old-fashioned locomotives in movies like the Harry Potter series or The Polar Express and dreamed of what it might be like to be hauled up a mountain by a powerful steam engine while the train whistle roars? Are you tired of travel by plane and car and seeking a convenient alternative that lets you experience America’s mountains, plains, and rivers up close?

If you answered yes to any of these questions, then this book is for you. Greater Than a Tourist: American Rail Travel by author Anna Liisa Van Mantgem provides vacationers with interesting facts, tips, and ideas for exploring America by rail.

In these minutes, you will discover some of the most scenic Amtrak interstate routes featuring America’s national parks, plus learn about regional heritage railways that preserve the historic ambiance of 1800s train travel. This book will also help you plan, pack for, and optimize your Amtrak experience without feeling overwhelmed. By the time you finish listening to this book, you will feel inspired to incorporate train travel into your next vacation, whether you explore an entire region by rail or simply add a quick, one-day heritage railway excursion onto your journey.
