Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)Read a personal account of an Amtrak employee. As he traveled across the country making beds and doing his many other tasks, he took time to talk to passengers. His stories are inspirational and personal. The final chapter briefly gives guidelines to help the traveler enjoy his/her trip. I look forward to traveling with attendants and employees who care for their passengers as he does. This is an interesting read for people who are looking forward to train travel or have returned from a trip.
