Amtrak Express Shipping

Amtrak offers this great deal called 'Station-to-Station' service. It's a way to ship packages cheaper than what other companies charge.  Let's say you're shipping a 100 pound package from Sacramento to Los Angeles. Amtrak would charge $34 and it would arrive within 24 hours.

Shipping that same box through UPS would take twice as long and cost you almost $70.  At Fed-Ex, you would pay a little less, $61.29, and arriving in two business days.  And its $52.99 if you use DHL's two day delivery service.

Small Package Shipments

Weight limit for each item: 50 lbs (23 kg)
Size limit for each item: 3 ft x 3 ft x 3 ft
Weight limit for each shipment: 500 lbs (227 kg)

You know, I've always been amazed at these little-thought-of shipping services.

When I lived in Omaha and Lincoln, if I needed to ship something to the Sandhills of Nebraska, it was an easy matter of going down to a bus depot and getting it on the next bus headed that direction; usually half-a-day service (the post office and other services took overnight, at least).

Although this isn't generally advertised.  I wonder why it isn't.

This is the first I've heard of it.  I'm sure it's been around for years, but I've never seen it advertised.

While the real Dixie Darling (my beagle) is on the constant look out for varmits, this Dixie*Darling has a nose for freebies! 

It may seem small and tedious to some, but I enjoy a good sample in the mailbox as opposed to the usual bills.  Besides, who couldn't use the occasional sample of deodorant in a pinch rather than running out to the store for just the one item?

Thanks Frank.  It's nice to be appreciated.   :-)
