It's been a few years since we used Amtrak, and our tires were thinner than 2", so I guess I really don't know if that would keep you from getting on the train or not.
However regarding Amtrak -my husband and I wanted to take Amtrak back to Sedalia from Washington the end of October. They only show availability for 1 bike on the morning train. So I looked at several other dates, trying to find a day that we could get both bikes on the train, willing to work our bike trip around that. As it happens, I looked up every day all the way throuth the end of the year, and there was never a morning train from Washington to Sedalia that posted more than 1 bike slot available. This did not seem right to me - unless for some reason they really don't want cyclists using the train service. I have emailed Amtrak, but have not heard back. Does anyone have any thoughts on this? I'm pretty disappointed that we have to hire a shuttle service. I really prefer taking the train.
