56 days from now I should be (hopefully) just about to step off a northbound Silver Meteor at the Orlando Amtrak station.

Traveling by train? If so, you need to include some photos of the train trip in a trip report!jmenjes wrote:56 days from now I should be (hopefully) just about to step off a northbound Silver Meteor at the Orlando Amtrak station.

That would be cool! How long does it take to travel from where you are to WDW via the train jmenjes?mindflipper wrote:Traveling by train?

Re: I have only ......... days/months till I go again.
Usually about a 4-and-a-half to 5 hour ride north (on at 9:04 am, off at 1:43 pm), 5 to 5-and-a-half hours south (1:10 pm to 6:18 pm), all depending on other rail traffic. The round-trip is about $72.
As far as pics, there's really only a couple of decent picture opportunities, where the tracks are next to a couple of lakes (one outside of Sebring, one at Winter Haven, and one more by Lake Alfred). It's a bit tough to get a decent picture traveling at 79 mph, though.
(Just saw the Aaron Rodgers "I'm going to Disney World!" ad. Nicely done.)

Re: I have only ......... days/months till I go again.
We will settle for photos of the train and seating inside ~ we aren't too picky
$72 sounds pretty good for the trip...a lot cheaper than you could get by for in gas!!

12 days left until we leave! I'm counting down to single digits and online check in right now, but everything is going... so... slowly...
Can't wait to take my twin boys on their first trip to Walt Disney World! Planning on heading there sometime Feb-May 2014!

Re: I have only ......... days/months till I go again.
I gotta admit with Amy the Train sounds economical - gas is getting high $$$ again. And I agree with Amy - I've not been on a train in this state, so I wonder what accomodations are like.jmenjes wrote:Usually about a 4-and-a-half to 5 hour ride north (on at 9:04 am, off at 1:43 pm), 5 to 5-and-a-half hours south (1:10 pm to 6:18 pm), all depending on other rail traffic.

BTW my local news reported Aaron Rodgers was at DISNEYLAND when you could clearly see it was WDW MK castle in the background. Maybe they needed to watch that commercial in order to report the news better? (what idiots!)

That is really bad when the local news doesn't even call the park by the right name!mindflipper wrote:...BTW my local news reported Aaron Rodgers was at DISNEYLAND when you could clearly see it was WDW MK castle in the background.

Single digits!! Finally! Last night I did my online check in for POFQ and we totally changed our dining reservations all around.
