How Can I rent a train for 200 to travel from Miami to Atlanta?|103759

I need a group of 200 people to travel from Miami to Atlanta on June of 2009? I tried to charter a plane and motor coaches but they are expensive is it possible to rent a train?

You can rule out Amtrak. The only train route they operate that stops in Atlanta goes from Washington to New Orleans, and doesn_t otherwise connect with a train to Miami.

I don_t think you want your guests to first travel up to the northeast before being able to travel to Atlanta.

Typically, the least expensive option is a bus. You may want to shop around a bit with various bus charter companies and see if you can get a better quote.

Contact Amtrack and Let them know you will be a large group traveling together. They will be helpful.

How do you get to Yankee Stadium on the train from Weehawken?|125350

I_m going to the Yank-Royals game this afternoon and I need to take the train. I_ve never done that from Jersey - anyone know the route? Thanks

Avoid driving there. On game days, there is A LOT of traffic heading to the stadium. If you can take a bus or train to the NY Port Authority, you can then take the _S_ (shuttle) train to the East Side of 42nd Street and then take the _4_ train up to the Bronx. The stop is called _Yankee Stadium_

Rather than train or bus, or subway, ferry is your best choice.

New York Waterway operates Yankees Clipper from either Hoboken/NJT Terminal or Port Imperial if you don_t feel like to go to Manhattan.
Yankees Clipper is hassle free with no traffic to deal with.

Nj transit to Penn Station, then make your way to the B or D lines that will lead you right to the stadium.

Shoredude almost had it right.

Take the Septa Regional Rail train into Market East, but forgo the walk to the river from there. It_s about ten blocks from the station and if you_re unfamiliar with the city, you_ll probably wind up lost. Also the ferry is VERY slow, and not as dependable as you might like in terms of on-time.

Instead follow the signs inside Market East station to the PATCO Hi-Speed-Line at 8th Street. You can reach it underground from the Market East station. There_s a PATCO station just across the river in Camden, a short walk from the concert center.

Consider $2.50 per mile, so you_re easily over $75.

Take the train into Philly and get off at Market East. Walk east on Market St. to Penn_s Landing and take the ferry over to Camden which will leave you off right by the Susquehanna Bank Center (formerly the Tweeter Center).

PS..There_s no way I_d ever think of a young woman walking the streets of Camden. It_s a few blocks walk and not into a nice neighborhood. So avoid the PATCO.

Don_t take a taxi to Camden, definitely take the high speed line. Google PATCO to get the exact fare, but I think it_ll be $4.50 round trip. Or you could pay between $40 and $50 for a cab. PATCO is great though, and drops you off right there, either Broadway or City Hall stop.

You better take a loan out.

How expensive is electricity and heating oil in Alaska?|150548

Hello, I might be moving to Alaska and just would like to know if anyone can tell me if the electricity and heating oil is expensive or about average when compared to the other states in the U.S. ?

Thanks!

Gasoline and heating oil _on the road system_ (Anchorage, Fairbanks, Kenai) is about the same as on the USA west coast. Natural gas and electricity is a bit less.

Off the road system (Barrow, Kotzebue, Nome, etc), everything is much, much more expensive. Electricity is generated locally and in some places, fuel is flown in. Figure about twice national prices.

Also consider that you use MORE fuel in a cold climate. How a house or apartment is constructed is critical because an old building can use 10 times the energy of a new, tight house. Ask the current owner or landlord to see last year_s utility bills. Factor that into your choice of accomodations.

it should be cheap because that is where the main pipline is.

Well here is a rundown for winter in and around anchorage. I filled up my oil tank with 500 gallons of heating oil, I paid 3 dollars per gallon, so 1500, that lasts about 2.5-3 months. Electricty isnt too expensive I have a 4 bedroom home with two kids and I pay 135 dollars per month, and sometimes 165 in the winter when we run space heaters.

California it was cheaper, you didnt nead heat, so only electricty which was 60 dollars per month. So its a little more here, it gets colder.

I have lived in Alaska all my life. It isn_t cheap, we don_t get the deals you would expect. In fact it is expensive just like the rest of the country. In Anchorage it is not too bad, but in smaller communities it almost always costs more since it is hard to transport fuel there. Our costs of living, like buying groceries is higher, but our wages are higher too. Minimum wage is $7.15, but most people make more than that. In Anchorage we don_t have sales taxes though either.

How do i get work in califorina? Is 33 too old to work in America?|135088

I have an hon_s degree in Music and music technology.

You can mow my lawn.

no - all the important, smart people are behind the scenes in music anyway.

No that_s not too old. If you had something different to offer maybe you would attract more work.

Are you arriving with or without a visa? Most major attractions; like Knottsberry Farm, Disney etc. are always looking for any musician with a degree. You have to be a legal alien with papers to even be considered.
