Certainly does sound miserable - worse than in a seat on amtrak, let alone a roomette or bedroom.

However you can take the 1310 from LA to Phoenix, then half an hour wait before the 2245 to St Louis, and a 1h25 wait at 0720 for a St Louis to New York.

66 hours with 64 hours on the actual bus, miserable for both you and your fellow passengers.

In 1981, I spent two weeks on Greyhound buses, traversing the entire country. I only had 1 night off the bus, visiting a hero of mine in Albuquerque.

It wasn't that miserable, but it was sort of miserable. And I was 17/18.

The Hot Dog or the Jumping Frog?

This assumes there will be no delays. In my experience, that probably won't be the case.
