    Auto Train goes from Lorton, VA to Sanford, FL. Better plan on robbing a bank.

    I used to put the vehicle I was driving on this train once a week if I wanted to get to the mainland. Nothing to it.

    Why a train? I hired a guy to haul my truck from Knoxville to about 40 miles east of Columbia SC (around 300 miles) and it was only something like $150.00.

    I know the Amtrak isn’t cheap
    You can ship it on an open rack from fl to pa (depending on exact locations ) for $750 give or take ....
