Thanks Sedges, I did talk to Amtrak last night and got the same info about the bikes and Anniston not being a baggage stop. I am all for the two day trip with a rest at Dobbins, however, only one of the gang will be up for that, the rest are interested in the ride but not a double. Since we all live in Alabama we will figure it out. Another option is to have a couple of us drive to Anniston and leave the transport there, take the train to Atlanta to meet the others. This way we all have a ride back home. It will be fun either way.
