On trains and buses, check the luggage policies. Most allow a carry-on and checked bag, but sizes and fees may vary. Keep valuables and essentials in your carry-on.
No Border Crossings**:
The journey is entirely within the United States, so you won’t need to worry about border crossings or customs. Enjoy the scenic views without the hassle!
