[Nfbf-l] State Convention: Traveling by Train?

[Marion & Martin]

Kitty,
    Thanks for the information. We are trying to see what sort of 
transportation alternatives we can find for our outbound trip.

Fraternally,
Marion

>> Dear All,
>>    Today I made my travel reservations for Amtrak. I also checked on the 
>> Tri-Rail schedule for both my arrival on May 22 and return on May 25 
>> (Memorial Day). I found that we have an issue with the return trip! The 
>> train leaves Deerfield Beach at 12:48 and wPB at 1:27. The problem is 
>> that the Tri-Rail train runs with a two-hour headway, leaving Boca at 
>> 12:32 arriving in Deerfield Beach at 12:39 and leaving Boca at 1:04, 
>> arriving in WPB at 1:34. On this schedule, there is only nine minutes 
>> between trains in Deerfield and arrives 7 minutes late in WPB.
>>    The Embassy Suites will only transport within a three-mile radius and 
>> Deerfield Beach is seven miles from the hotel and WPb is nearly 30. We 
>> are looking into van transportation to carry us to deerfield Beach and 
>> need to know how many delegates will be traveling via Amtrak. If you - 
>> like Merry and me - have already made reservations with Amtrak from WPB, 
>> you may wish to reconsider the departure city for the return to save on 
>> transportation costs. In the meantime, we would like to know how many 
>> people will need transportation to Amtrak so we can get a quote on 
>> transportation. Please reply to this message with this information.
