Skate or Die

Description

What you end up doing with 5 hours in Galesburg, Illinois before the next train to LA. This small town connects two major train lines. The California Zephyr which spans from The Bay to Chicago, and the Southwest Chief, which takes a route from there to LA. One of the problems with American train infrastructure is the fact that there's simply not enough interstate rail, let alone exclusive to passenger train. Instead Amtrak rents the track and are generally secondary to the traffic of the faster and more powerful freight trains that they yield to. The passenger effect becomes limited train departures between cities with far fewer departures either direction. There are also very few lines that connect the midwest to the and none that connect middle America from North to South. So f you are in Denver and can't book a ticket to Emeryville (SF), the only option to get home immediately is to backtrack to Illinois, grab some beers, hillbomb a closed road, and then hop a train to LA for a 44 hours.
