Advice!? I am trying to get a work of art that needs to be hand-carried (and carried flat) from Laurel, MS to Washington, D.C. It seems like air travel is not going to work because no-one can guarantee that I can be with the work of art at all times. If Joe Blow at the security gate wants to take it out and paw all over it, pull it out of the frame, whatever, I can't stop him if I want to get on the plane, and apparently I can't insist on staying with the work of art at all times. We have been in touch with professional courier assistance companies, and are not making much progress on that front. Time is running short, so we are trying to find an alternative - preferably one that does not involve me riding on a truck with strangers for 24 hours in a row. So my question is: how is security handled on trains these days? Do I have to run a gauntlet to get on the train, too? Has anybody done a courier trip on the train recently? Any advice or recommendations would be most welcome. Thanks - Jill R.
