<<I have been across the western states 10 times and have yet to be over the
Royal Gorge or see the Grand Canyon.  Most of the travel was while I was a
youngster, with my family, and since my mom was terrified of heights we were not
allowed to go near either place.  >>

Well, I have no fear of heights to speak of. In fact, the conductor was making
cracks about who would pull me back in as I leaned out so far. BTW, there was a
video camera crew from Rocky Mountain PBS shooting on this trip and they had
their big Pro videocam hanging out the window most of the time. This nerved me
as I paid extra for a special photog-oriented ride where they would stop the
train periodically, let us off and then run by for photos. I didn't buy the
"crew with the biggest camera gets the best location" ideology. They also camped
out on the platform up front with the cameraman, sound girl, and still guy at
the watering stops, so it was very hard for the rest of us to get any shots
around them.
