2017 Train Trip?
So looking at both this forum and the FB group, seems like the 2016/10th Train Trip may not have actually happened, or at least not officially? Did anyone actually go to PAX via the train last year, and how was it? Trying to decide my travel plans, and if the train trip is still a thing I'd love to do it again, but if it's essentially died off then I'll start looking into flights.

Sadly for one reason or another both events vanished from the roster of social gatherings for PAX. I personally think they were both amazing and cheered them on from the sidelines as I am travelling from London, UK so I cannot realistically participate in either event.
So if you want to organise a train trip with other PAX attendees I'd highly recommend you read those old threads and see what you'd need to do to make it happen. As @TimeCruiserMike says, if you build it, they will come!
<Sigh> I'll start working on updating my old template. How much interest is there for my favorite PAX community event? In the case some of you are unfamiliar with the PAXTrain I'll drop a couple links for your convenience.

Why is PAXTrain so awesome?
It might be the weed, but watching some of the old PAXTrain stuff brought tears to my eyes. I just can't sit idly by and let this once great extension of PAX go unplanned. I won't be able to ride anytime in the foreseeable future, so I would very much like volunteers to head the mission north from Los Angeles to Seattle.

I was so hyped to do so. I even decked myself out in gaming attire to be obvious as to my destination. (Though, I do this when flying to/from PAX as well. Finding other PAX people on my journey is exciting.)
I did not speak with any other PAX people until Portland. There was no gaming car, and nobody was playing table top games in the observation car (until Portland, when I saw a group come on board with a stack of games and I ran after them like a lost puppy).
I got on the train half way through California.
Given the time commitment of the train, I am wary to try again without the obvious organization that there was in the years before I tried.
