Traveling in America is always a little bit of a disappointment. I love Amtrak and I love that it's an option, but it always feels like a letdown knowing that this 8-hour, multi-hundred dollar train trip takes exactly as long as driving to and from the same places. It has the potential to be so much more, so much faster, and so much more convenient for so so so many people and we just don't let it.

Railway termini are our gates to the glorious and the unknown. Through them we pass out into adventure and sunshine, to them, alas! we return.

JP Morgan’s Private Pullman Railcar,
Almost a hundred years ago, there were those who could outfit a private railcar the same way some today outfit private jets. 
This particular railcar, a 1925 Pullman, was the private car of financier J.P. Morgan Jr. Very few ever had the opportunity to travel like this, but you can see the obvious benefits it offered while avoiding the early roads or attempting to travel long distances in a Model T Ford. 
This masterpiece of railcar craftsmanship was completed in May of 1925 and it was named ERIE 400. The elegant private car is 85’ long and boasts an open platform, an observation room, four large bedroom suites, private baths, a dining room, full kitchen and crew quarters.
