The itinerary that I have has no long stop-overs (6 hrs in Chicago), but Amtrak has all sorts of passes that allow you to get off for a few days here and there all over the country. The roomette has two fold-down bunks. However, for me, doing this with two people would be cramped. Even if it were my girlfriend, 3 1/2 days would be stretching it. She'll fly.

And not off-topic, because I'm headed to The Lake!
Thanks, friend--happy trails!
