All Aboard the Desert Express (Or Not)
So, you're dreaming of swapping the glitz of LA for the neon wonderland of Vegas, and you're thinking, "Hey, why not take a train?" Well, buckle up, buttercup, because I've got some news for you.
The Great Train Robbery (Of Your Hopes)
Picture this: you're lounging in a plush train seat, sipping on a martini, watching the desert scenery roll by. Sounds dreamy, right? Wrong. Unless you're a fan of slow-motion travel and unexpected layovers, forget about it.
While there is a train that goes from LA to Vegas, it's not exactly the Orient Express. We're talking about a good chunk of your day (or night) spent chugging along at a snail's pace. And let's not forget the part where you have to hop on a bus to actually get to Vegas. Talk about a buzzkill.

- If you've got all the time in the world: Sure, why not? You might even make some new friends.
