Snacks and hydration: While most trains have dining cars or food service, it’s a good idea to bring your own snacks and water. Pack some light, non-perishable snacks like nuts, granola bars, or fresh fruit to keep you energized throughout the trip. Staying hydrated is important, so carry a refillable water bottle at the stations. (pexels)
