Rail Travel Preferences

Rail Travel Preferences is an expandable/collapsible section of the Travel Preferences tab that displays your rail  travel preferences from your Profile and lets you change the preferences for the current search only.

Note: Not all of your rail travel preferences appear on the Travel Preferences tab. Your profile includes additional preferences that are not necessarily trip specific. Setting your travel preferences from Rail Home affects only the current search. To change the travel preferences in your profile, see Travel Preferences.
