Amtrak Sunset limited and Coastliner in California are great. Beautiful scenery plus someone else is "driving" so with younger kids you can enjoy the trip with them.

My kids are teens now and so when we did a train trip last year they spent the entire time heads bent down on their cellphones. Oh well, I still got to enjoy the scenery ddidn't have to drive.

My son is 7. He'd have a hard time being entertained by scenery on a long train ride. How old were your kids when they enjoyed it? After you got off the train how did you get to your destination? Cab?

The girls were 7 and 9. I was surprised how entertained they were, but we also had brought games/food, you can get up and walk around.

One of the things I did the amuse them was bought them each cheap cameras and did a picture scavenger hunt from the train of things we were passing.

I had family in the area and they met us at the train station.

Ah girls! That explains it. Haha! My boy is way too active I think to enjoy that for more than an hour. Sounds relaxing though. One day I'll try it.
