Kurt,

I hope my words don’t talk you out of going!

You are taking on a huge trip, and at times it might be a little uncomfortable, but it’s something you will never forget. I think everyone should go on such amazing journeys, even if they’re uncomfortable at times. I guarantee you’ll have incredible stories at the end of the trip.

Yes, the train pass is a great way to go, and I would recommend either getting a sleeper car on the train or getting off and staying overnight in hotels. That way you can really enjoy the trek across America and not be exhausted!

I do hope you take this journey!
