It's about the journey, not the destination. All Aboard--first published in 1995, and here revised and updated--is much more than a mile-by-mile scenery guide for train travelers.

This latest, fifth edition includes up-to-date information on modern high-speed rail projects in California, Texas, and Florida, new trains on the Copper Canyon route in Mexico, current reports on the legal disputes between freight railroads and Amtrak, and much, much more.
