I was hoping to take the train for a quickie Cumberland to Pgh ride over Labor day but it's looking like I'll have to push it back a week. OTOH, I've ridden the GAP so many times it might be nice to to take a weekend and do the C&O. Is it better to go from DC to Cumberland or vice versa?

Reason: I guess I can't use Amtrak's abbreviation for Cumberland...
