The students are Sydney Kilgore, Mary McMillan, Nitish Narula, and Joshua Manuel. They will travel by car and by Amtrak train. They will meet the Amtrak Crescent in Meridian, MS and travel on it to Greenville, SC.
Once there, they will spend four nights at the Hyatt Regency before traveling back home. All are looking forward to spending some time on the rails and presenting their individual projects.
Taking the train was an economic decision, primarily. Four students could travel for about the cost of one plane ticket. But, sentimental reasons helped too. The four will produce a documentary of their trip. It won't be long, unfortunately, until train travel becomes a rare event in the USA.
