9,177 miles at government expense - and a roomette! About May of 1986. San Antonio to LA, up to Seattle, across to Chicago, west on the CZ to Oakland, back down to LA, r/t to Tucson, then LA to Seattle. Stopovers to do grant project evaluations in Phoenix, LA, Glasgow, Chicago, Denver, SLC, Oakland, Santa Barbara, Tucson and Eugene. And it was cheaper than flying to all those places. Saved the government over $1,000, though it was hard for them to believe that trains were cheaper than airlines.
