The attendants were very helpful, as my family had a delay on getting to the train and arrived slightly past check luggage time we were politely given a cart to load and pushed through to an attendant that had the exact number of tags for bags to be checked. Thanks for the love Union.

Amtrak travel offered so much more room than plane or bus travel. The seats recline. There are plugins for your phone/Kindle. If you smoke, there was a stop in Jackson (MS), and Memphis (TN), where you can get off and stretch your legs and have a smoke if you choose. The food selection was microwaveable, and subpar, but nice to have some drink and food selections. The dining car, was nice and open, where you could see all around. Taking the train you get to see areas and parts that you don’t get on road-to-road travel. I checked the train ride off my bucket list, and I say, “take the experience.”

Saeda Sarsour | Oct 16, 2019
Roy Michel | Oct 16, 2019

The only train that will allow you to make a round-trip in one day is the Crescent. The quickest turn around time would be to Meridian, Ms. It's about a four hour trip, and the turnaround time is about three hours. You would leave around 7am and be back for 720pm. Only other option would be for you to take the train up and maybe take the Greyhound bus back.
