From the back cover of previous editions of this book:
Rail travel in the USA is the ultimate in luxury: comfortable, fast and quiet, with glass-domed trains to lure the traveller attracted by the grandeur of the Rockies and the sheer vastness of the great plains. While Amtrak takes the laurels for speed and efficiency, in scenic areas there are still steam trains to be found, privately financed and inexorably romantic.
USA by Rail describes in detail 27 long-distance rail journeys in the United States, with coverage of an additional 12 routes across Canada, all fully updated for this second edition. From the Atlantic to the Pacific, from the Mexican border to polar bear country, there is no better way to see the sights, make new friends and discover North America than to travel by train.
"Bradt Guides are the favourites of travellers who wish not merely to see but to understand." Dervla Murphy
