When I wanted to take my dad to Chicago for his birthday, we ruled out flying because of the cost and risk of weather disruption and driving because of the distance and annoyance of having the car once in Chicago. Instead, we embarked on an elaborate trip by bus, carpool, and train. Why? Because Amtrak service in the Midwest is severely lacking, especially in Ohio. But hopefully, that will drastically change in the next few years thanks to the Amtrak Connects Us plan, which would add significantly more and better service in Ohio and many other communities across the nation.
