About Steve's Rail Travelogues
www.trainweb.com/routes/sgloghdr.htm
My travelogues are probably not what you normally expect in a travelogue.
I tend to write about things that I discover or that intrigue me about
my trip. Many of the items are quite trivial, but some items may enhance
your own journey beyond what you would have experienced if you did not
learn about these items.
Most of my writing is about my experience and discoveries on the train
itself. So, if you are looking for detailed descriptions and historic
information about tourist attractions along the routes of Amtrak, you
will not find that here.
I feel there is already an overwhelming amount of information about
specific cities and states in the travel section of your local library
and bookstores. The Auto Club also has extensive travel information
about both the attractions in each city and the hotels and restaurants
in those cities. Before every trip, I get all the information I can
about the places that I will be visiting from the auto club and from
my local bookstores. Since writing about this aspect of my rail travels
neither interests me nor is my forte, I will not attempt to duplicate
what can be found in many good travel books.
If you would like a minute by minute description of everything that you
can see out your window from just about every Amtrak route in the United
States as well as most every passenger train route in both Canada and
Mexico, I'd suggest you get a copy of the following book:
Also, my travelogues are not about the social life on and off the train.
I'm really not one to seek out company on the train and exchange our life
stories. I do that when I have no choice but to sit with other people in
the Dining Car during meals, but two or three times a day for that is
enough for me. If you would like stories about the social life on and
off the train combined with tidbits of sights and rail history, then
read some of the following books:
So just what are my travelogues about? That you will have to find out for
yourself. I hope that you get some idea of what fascinates me about rail
travel once you have read some of my travelogues. If you become
fascinated by what you read here, then I hope it will encourage you to
travel by rail if you are not already an avid rail traveler. If you don't
find my writing interesting, then definitely read some of the books listed
above. If my writing can't get you interested in rail travel, it is very
possible that one or more of the above books will describe an aspect of
rail travel that is missing from my writing.
