Train from Washington DC to Raleigh

After some 45 minute delay we finally boarded our little roomette (cabin with 2 seats facing each other that can be converted to one bed and another bunk bed on top of it, and a toilette and a sink, all of this in a 3x6 little space!) - and still got stuck in DC for another 1.5 hours due to some freight train blocking the tracks. So instead of 6 hours it took us almost 9 hours and we arrived around midnight, phew.... And our little roomette had some air-conditioning problems, a flickering light and a leaking sink, so we finally moved to another one with working air condition, but broken toilette, ha! Even with all the fun we had on this train ride, we decided this will probably be our one and only Amtrak trip ever :)
