Took the train to Tuscaloosa in 09. It was ok. The worst part is the time it takes to get from one place to the other. Had to meet at Drusillas at 5:30 to take a bus to New Orleans then wait an hour and a half for the train to leave. Then it was a seven and a half hour train ride then back on a bus to the hotel.
I could have driven there in 5 hours.

The point of this wasn't to compare a car trip w/a
carrier (plane,train,bus).Obviously there are advantages to both. Car is probably cheaper. With the other you have to make transfers. When you fly into Atlanta/Dallas/ect. you don't hop off the plane & jump on another 15 minutes later. I guess it was rough riding that bus back to the hotel. If you can drive to Tuscaloosa in 5 hours you are not prepping your car or stopping for food,gas or to stretch. You might be on the side of the road w/the Miss. or Bama state police while the others are enjoying a toddy on the train.
I've taken small group trips to Omaha twice w/Jim. Everything was handled professionally and we had a great time. Looks like all the other posters agree w/me. Last but not least. I doubt if the trip the OP was referring to is a Tuscaloosa trip. We're not going back there for 2 years. Have a nice day! No, really , have a nice day!
