But there is no station in Armstrong, and getting clarification from a call center is wasted time. Like you say, too high a risk.

I've looked at this too - my suspicion is that if one showed up with a ticket, a canoe w/train fee paid, and had a dog...they would...

Eureka No-Bug-Zone but there are a number of similar shelters available now. I throw my 10 x 14 over top and ride anything out. On...

Get the planning map, learn the railroad rules. I’ve been planning for a couple years. There are trips you can do from Armstrong, but...
