My belief is 'Experience as possible as I can'. So I want to experience a lot of things during in the U.S.. And then, I decide to go to Chicago by Amtrak.
Actually, it takes 48 hours from Portland to Chicago. Yeah. I know It's crazy. However, I did it by my self!
What I ride train line's name is 'Empire builder'
It starts Seattle/Portland, and two trains combine at Spokane,WA. (I think it happened at midnight) and then go to east.
First, I booked ticket. But departure date is too close, there's no berth. So I reserved coach seat. Well, the coach seat was not bad. If it is an airplane, that seat is probably counted as business class. But it's not good for sleep :( (During the night, Coach train is really, really, seriously cold)

First day, we run Washington state and during night, we passed Idaho state, and entered Montana state.
Be countinued :)
Sounds like an exciting trip. I hope we can read more about it. I bet you have a lot more fabulous photos too!! I like the conversational tone in your blog posts too. It's fun to read!
