Amtrak Saluki
The lead Acela on Amtrak's Saluki, the train that runs between Chicago and Carbondale, IL several times a day.
These last two trips to see my dad, my wife and I decided it would be smarter for me to hop the bus into Chicago, get on the train, and rent a car on the far end to drive to my dad's. It's a 7-hour drive, about the same combined with bus, train and car. This way, I can relax and watch a movie or read and not have to try and stay awake through some of the flattest, most uneventful landscape in the Midwestern USA.
