My family of 5 stayed in two family rooms on the Amtrak Auto Train from Florida to Virginia.
Our family rooms felt spacious — they were the width of the train with large picture windows on both sides.
We didn't have private showers, sinks, or toilets in the rooms, but there were communal bathrooms nearby in our train car.
Our $3,100 train trip was more expensive than what we'd have spent on gas, hotels, and food during a road trip from Florida to Virginia.
Next time, we'll book one family cabin and an adjacent roomette, a move that would've saved us about $630.
