Default Auto Train?
Hi,

We recently purchased a house in Springdale and are in a protracted process of moving in until we finally retire sometime next year. Renting a car each time we visit our (retirement) home is getting to be expensive. I would like to bring one of my cars from western NY to TV in early November before the snow starts to fly up north. I see that Amtrak will ship it from Lorton, VA to Sanford. Anyone have any experience doing this, good or bad? Is it worth it or should I just drive it all the way to FL and be done with it? Anything that I need to be aware of? Any and all suggestions will be appreciated.

Thanks!
