Il Treno


Government shutdowns aside, why can't the United States come up with a decent train system? 

Friday Mr. C. and I took the train from Rome to Venice. We arrived in Venice in mid-day and stayed until about 8pm. Later, Friday night we went from Venice to Milan and returned to Rome Saturday night.





There were no delays. The trains were clean. The seats were comfortable. We had internet almost the entire way. 

If I lived in Rome I'd take the train everywhere. There are high speed trains, commuter trains, locals. First class, business class, second class, regular. It was easier, more comfortable and less expensive than any domestic flights we've taken the last several years.
