Re: [DML] Amtrak Auto Train to DCS 2012

[gmfm1@xxxxxxxxxxx]

I have thought of using Amtrak's autotrain to Florida for me, a passenger and a car and found that it was very expensive. You don't even get 1 passenger with the price of the car. Maybe now with the higher cost of gas it might be worth it.
Also, has anyone taken a Delorean on the autotrain? Can the doors be opened enough for the driver to get out and can you drive your own car on to the train car?
