Traveling on Amtrak's Empire Builder from Chicago to Seattle offers a scenic overview of America, but to truly experience it, one must get off the train.
With a USA Rail Pass, I planned numerous stops to explore regions of America that differ greatly from urban life, highlighting both the beauty and challenges of train travel.
The journey showcases a diverse range of landscapes, yet the unpredictable delays of the Amtrak experience serve as a reminder of the patience required for adventure.
Seeing America from a train can feel superficial; engagement with each unique stop reveals deeper insights into the culture and geography often overlooked by faster means of travel.
