    I've been considering catching the Amtrak passenger line that passes through here at 11PM every night. It's very fast!

    I was on that train on the way back up north. It is fast, and is usually early because they made the schedule less challenging than it used to be. But once it gets north of DC it really moves since it only drops off passengers so it doesn't matter if it's early. Also, the old Pennsy mainline is electrified and still some of the best maintained track around.

    Amtrak has a station just about a mile and a half from me in Depew. I'm pretty much surrounded by railroad tracks here.
