How busy are trains from A to B in rush hour in mornings?
You should buy your ticket in advance and then pick it up at the station. I've bought a ticket online at 6:00 am for a 7:30 am train, so they aren't necessarily sold out. But Amtrak is also now giving cheaper fares for earlier advance purchases, so that's another reason to buy in advance.
You pick up a ticket by putting a credit card in the ticket kiosks and punching in your reservation number. If it's the card you used to purchase the ticket, the kiosk will show you that without needed the reservation number.

Hey, Have you ever heard of the cheese-rolling festival in England?
Cheese rolling? What's that?
Well, they roll a big, round piece of cheese down a really steep hill, and then lots of people chase after it.
You're kidding. Do you know why they roll the cheese?
I'm not sure, but I think it has something to do with farming.

'Gray divorces' could pit single boomers against millennials for real estate
High baby boomer divorce rate could make it even harder for millennials to buy homes.
In 2017, a study from The Pew Research Center found that the divorce rate for baby boomers had roughly doubled since the 1990s. By early 2020, additional research by SmartAsset had found that more than one in ten senior citizens are divorced. In short, this phenomenon, known as 'gray divorce', shows no signs of slowing down.
This climbing divorce rate could have a lasting effect on the real estate industry. With that in mind, read on to get a sense of how real estate could be impacted if the gray divorce trend continues into boomers'(those born 1946 to 1964)later years.
