Perry <[log in to unmask]> To: Maps and Air Photo Systems Forum <[log in to unmask]> Subject: Re: carpool to NACIS (fwd) For general information -- the train (AMTRAK) from Seattle to Portland is very economical and takes just about the same time as the drive. They put the new high speed trains into service before I left Oregon 2 years ago and I was able to do the Albany to Seattle trip in 6 hours for $40 r/t, so going to Portland would be cheaper and take about 2 hours less. I don't know about getting from the airport to Amtrak however.
