In this photo taken Wednesday, Jan. 25, 2017, in Denver, Machelle Lowe, 45, of Mount Pleasant Iowa, was traveling to see her daughter in Wyoming after discovering she has cancer. AP Tampa correspondent Tamara Lush spent 15 days traveling via train across the U.S. as part of Amtrak's residency program, designed for creative professionals to spend time writing on the rails. She spoke with dozens of people _ fellow travelers, friends and family waiting for loved one at stations, train workers _ and filed occasional dispatches for the Tales on a Train project.
