Well guys, I made it to chicago. The train wasn’t bad either. I imagined it would be as bad as the greyhound bus, but it is really clean and you can get up and walk around. They had a cafe car, too, which was nice. It wasn’t horribly overpriced either. It was like going to a consessions stand at a football game.
As for the town itself, it’s a city. LoL. But it seems nice. Not nearly as unfriendly and crime infested as people think it is. The train station was partially underground. I couldnt tell where to go to leave the station, lol. But i called Dave (my friend here) and he found me. He was like “what escalator are you at?” and i was like “i dunno, everything looks the same here.”
I will try to relax some more, i dont really feel any better, yet.
