Amtrak Vacations packages this 3-day, 2-night independent rail vacation as a roundtrip from Washington, D.C. to the Greenbrier Resort in West Virginia's Allegheny Mountains. Roundtrip travel is in Business-Class on the Cardinal, with 2 nights at the resort and 2 breakfasts included. The Greenbrier itself spans 10,000 acres, with fine dining, golf, tennis, horseback riding, a mineral spa, a casino club, an eight-lane bowling alley, and a tour of the Bunker, once a secret government hideout. No guided touring or day-by-day itinerary is included beyond the resort stay. This suits travelers who want a short, independent luxury resort break reached directly by train from Washington, D.C., rather than a multi-city touring itinerary.
