From the vibrant streets of Columbus, Ohio, our iron steed charges westward, carrying us through a captivating panorama of rolling hills, verdant valleys, and whispering forests. As we glide along the rails, the rhythm of the wheels weaves a hypnotic symphony, inviting us to gaze out the window and lose ourselves in the ever-changing scenery.

Along our path, we'll encounter landmarks that whisper tales of the past and ignite our imaginations. Historic towns and bustling cities dot the landscape, each with its own unique character and charm. Friendly faces greet us at every stop, eager to share the stories and traditions that define their communities.
