I took a brief trip to El Paso at the beginning of November to help my dad and sister move in to their new home. It was my first Amtrak train trip in a LONG time and I had a really nice experience. I recommend train travel to anyone who is not on a tight schedule. The views are amazing, the ride is comfortable, and the socializing is a lot of fun!
