They came to New York early in the pandemic in March. However, with the weather in New York turning, they wanted to return to Florida.\nUnwilling to travel by plane, they opted for ground transit to Florida. the best option for this, without having to drive the roughly 1300 miles, is the Auto Train.\nMap of Autotrain route, captured from my Cell PhoneThe Auto Train runs from Lorton, VA, near Washington DC to Sanford, FL which is near Orlando. It makes one rest stop for crew at the halfway point in Florence, SC. There are no passenger stops.\nOne train operates in each direction daily, leaving its terminus at the same time.\nThe Auto Train is unique for Amtrak in that it contains car carriers where you can bring your automobile. This worked perfectly for our needs. We drove from New York to Lorton and gave over our car.\nThe train has a maximum capacity of 320 vehicles. In order for you to buy a ticket, you must be bringing a car. Otherwise, there are other Amtrak trains.\nTo avoid traffic, we picked November 26\u2026Thanksgiving Day. According to the announcement made, the train had 47 coach passengers, 141 sleepers, 114 vehicles and no motorcycles. So, about a third full.\n\nMy previous time on the Auto Train was May 10, 2010, from Sanford to Lorton. During that trip, where I wanted to experience the Auto Train, I\u2019d been in a coach seat. As the whole purpose of this trip was isolation, this was the first time I got to experience a bedroom.\nCombined Toilet and ShowerTime for Bed Amtrak offers roomettes, which do not include a bathroom and shower(it\u2019s down the hall), and bedrooms, which include a combination bathroom shower. We opted for the bedroom so we could isolate.\nExcept when the attendant helped us set up the beds, and when we received our meals, we did not leave the room for the entire trip. As of this January, coach passengers do not have meals included in their fare, however, those who have rooms do and they will bring the food to your room.\nTaking the train is an experience that I encourage. The advantage of the Autotrain is this\u2026.you bring your car along. On arrival in Sanford, we waited till they offloaded our car\u2026wiped it with disinfectant, sprayed Lysol, and went on our way.\nDuring the pandemic, Amtrak is requiring mask wearing at all times in their stations and on their trains, unless you have a room, in which case you may remove your mask in there only. They claim to clean the train thoroughly between uses, however we took no chances and disinfected it ourselves.\nThe last Amtrak train I\u2019d taken before this was from San Diego to Anaheim in September 2019. Prior to that, Baltimore to New York City. I think Amtrak is best suited to the medium-distance journeys of 5 hours or less. But a long distance train trip is a unique adventure.\n\u00a0",
