Jim and Pat from Illinois made the round-trip to D.C. by train to avoid the hassle of driving or flying. In the diner as the train passes historic Harper's Ferry, W.Va., Jim remarked, "it costs four times more and takes twice as long, but we prefer the train." They were traveling in a sleeper where meals are included but the fare is much higher.
