In Kindergarten, we rode the train from our city to the next town where our parents would pick us up and drive us back home.

In 2003, six of us friends rode the train from Tuscaloosa to New Orleans and back for a long weekend. It was a blast! (even though the train broke down 3 times and we were delayed 5 hours - we cleaned out the bar car).

I've ridden the subway in NYC, D.C. and Atlanta.

Not very often, although I did use the train a lot when I lived in South London, as it was the easiest way to get into central London. I commuted most days on it, but that was about ten years ago now.

I've also travelled on Amtrak - once in 1987 from New York to Washington DC and then in 1996, I took the train from Philadelphia to Atlantic City, New York and Washington DC.

Yes, when I was in the 5th or 6th grade we rode a train in east Texas- The Texas State Railroad in Rusk, Texas. [img]http://smileys.*************.com/cat/3/3_2_113.gif[/img]

I used to work in London so used to take the train everyday. I have also travelled from London to Paris and London to Brussels by train.

I've taken the train from Lawrence, MA to Boston on a few occasions (it's the light rail portion of the MBTA). I've never taken an actual train to go anywhere significantly far away though.

My most frequent train ride has been the Conway Scenic RR - it's a train that travels between North Conway and Conway - they also have a foliage train that runs through Crawford Notch in the White Mountains. The scenery and the old fashioned train cars are just beautiful. It's a frequent field trip up here.

Yes, we take the train into NYC a few times a year. I've also taken the train from NJ to Boston and D.C.

My use to tell me I went on a train when I was 3 but I don't remember. A couple of years ago mom & I took a train ride from Burlington, VT to Middlebury, VT (only about a hour or so) for the day. It is one of those tourest trains. It was alot of fun. I have been on commuter trains in Boston & Chicago.

[soccermomof2]

I have traveled by train to Baltimore and New York City.

[AmyJune]

I've taken the Amtrak to DC, NJ and Philly. DH has taken a couple of trip to NYC as well. When we were in London we took the train to Heathrow and of course road the Underground alot. We also used the trains in Ireland when we were visiting Dublin. I've used the subways in Boston, DC, Chicago & Philly.

[RobDVC]

Yes, quite a few times.

I've been on a lot of different types of trains, but didn't really give it a lot of thought until this question. I've ridden subways (under and above ground) in New York City, Washington DC & Seattle; the Amtrak from DC to Cumberland, Maryland; the scenic train here from Anchorage to Whittier (it goes thru a 1/2-mile long tunnel in a mountain); but my favorite will always remain the monorail at Disney!
