ALTERNATIVE TO FLYING OR DRIVING?
Leah and Bevi Zelaya praise the barrier-free restrooms aboard Amtrak trains they have taken in the Northeast.
Both noted that it is difficult to walk down a plane aisle to a restroom that
is too tiny to fit a second person to assist.
“The Red Caps must have good training because they are polite, accommodating, and don’t look at you like you have three heads,” Leah says.
“Travel by train is very relaxed.”
Train travel does have some drawbacks:
It can take more time than flying or driving, and service and accessibility are inconsistent nationally.
However, in some cases, these disadvantages are
outweighed by the opportunity to travel with greater access and dignity.
