Quick note

Train's stopping in Buffalo, and I picked up a hotspot. Gotta say: an overnight trip by train is no more restful than a transatlantic airplane trip.

Transit notes

Going Chicago to New York by train seems about equivalent to a really long airplane flight. If you're travelling coach, anyway. Very very tiring.

Saw some interesting sights. Met a couple of interesting people, and a couple of loudmouths. It was something I'd been meaning to do, but now that I've done it, I think I prefer air travel for distances of over three hundred miles.
