Am heading up to Devils lake this weekend for some fishing with the Perch Patrol. I have never taken a train in the US before and while trying not to bring “everything” I am trying not to forget anything important.
I bought one of those Plano sportsmans trunks a couple years ago and was considering using it to haul gear for this trip. The thing is listed as airline cargo accepted. Amtraks website says checked baggage can be only 36x36x36. This trunk is 37 3/4 at its longest, other measurements are well within the 36in limit.
Has anyone traveled by train with one of these?? Just wondering, would hate to get to the station and get the boot for just under two inches.
