I could literally bike across the Great Plains faster than a train and save enough money to buy a new bike. You first have to take the train to California, then to Oregon, and back halfway across the country.
The worst part is that the California Zephyr train it wants to route me on seems like it'd be one of the most beautiful train rides I've had. It winds through the Rockies, Utah canyonland and Nevada desert, and ends in one of California's most fertile agricultural regions. I would take a trip like that every weekend if the rail infrastructure was on par with mediocre European systems, let alone Chinese or Japanese ones. Geographically it's a dream country for trains in the ways that make driving and flying suck.
