The concept is great. If you've been on the road for most of your trip, it is a nice respite to take the train, since now the driver can relax and sightsee a bit as well. However, I...

Grand Canyon Railway - user review
We didn't ride this train, but would have if we hadn't had our dog with us. The reason I include it here is that we didn't even know there was a Grand Canyon Railway.
