    Gonna argue your last point, I would LOVE to take a train to WY or SD specifically for that scenery. Hate planes and don’t feel like driving that far.

    But at that distance I’d need the sleeper and at those sleeper prices I’d have to sell a kidney, so I won’t be doing it any time soon as fun as it would be.

      This is what happens when you don’t qualify your statements, you find the one person that’s a counterexample lmao.

      I’m genuinely glad that there’s people in the world that lack enough cynicism to believe visiting there could be fun, but if you’re prevented from going to WY/SD by the lack of trains, that’s only an argument in favor of not putting more trains there for your own protection.

      … Look I just really hate Wyoming. SD can have a station I guess but fuck Wyoming.

        I’ve been to one before, went to WY (and MT) as a young lad, saw Yellowstone, have a better camera now and would love to go back tbh. WY was gorgeous, I love trees and shit.

        I suppose SD also has Mt Rushmore and Deadwood that’d be neat visits, and the Black Hills, and the Badlands. But I’m a nerd lol, I know I’m the exception!

          I’m sorry, I fundamentally do not know… how to respond to someone earnestly saying they want to visit mount rushmore. I just. Sincerely, I hope you have a very happy life.
