As you will note from our map, the Amtrak system isnвЂ™t comprehensive вЂ“ East Coast states from Virginia northward are well covered with rail routes but some Western states are left out altogether. Travelling on the national Amtrak network (8, ) is rarely the fastest way to get around, though if you have the time it can be a pleasant and relaxing experience. Many worthwhile and memorable US destinations are far from the cities: even if a bus or train can take you to the general vicinity of one of the great national parks, for example, it would be of little use when it comes to enjoying the great outdoors.
