There is not a direct train between Austin and Houston. You have to go to San Antonio and wait 2 1/2 to 4 hours for a connection (depending on which way you are going). If you have to take ground public transportation, you are probably better off taking the Kerrville Bus. They have 5 buses a day between Austin and Houston that take 3 to 4 hours in total.
Amtrak trains run between New York City (Penn Station) and Houston, Texas. I am including a link to the Amtrak homepage, where you can buy tickets. At the Amtrak homepage, in the "From" and "To" fields, you enter "NYP" (for New York Penn Station) under "From," and "HOS" (for Houston, Texas) under "To." Then you select the date and time you want to travel, the number of tickets you need, and whether you need a one-way or round-trip ticket. Once you've entered in all the information, you will be taken to a list of departure times to choose from (although often, there is only one choice, because often, there is only one train per day going to a particular destination). You select a departure time, and you will be taken to the next screen, where you enter in your credit card information and pay for the tickets. You can have the tickets mailed to you, or you can pick them up from the electronic kiosks at the station. That is what I usually do, when I take Amtrak. You just put your credit card in the slot, and the machine prints out your ticket(s). edit: The answer above is not entirely true, currently and during times of hurricane seasons for the gulf coast region connecting Houston to New York trains are discontinued due to tracks being flooded by hurricane storms. in order to go from Houston Texas to New York NY, it requires a bus(or car) ride to dallas in which a train would be connected up through Chicago, and thus on... Therefore, if u cannot get a ticket(like myself) from Houston to NewYork, try dallas to NewYork...
Amtrak trains do not serve San Francisco from Los Angeles. You need to go to Oakland and take a bus across to San Francisco. It takes the Coast Starlight 11 hours and 14 minutes from Los Angeles to Oakland. The Amtrak Thruway bus takes 20 minutes to the Hyatt Regency Financial District and goes on to the Ferry Building, Pier 39 of Fisherman's Wharf and the SF Shopping Center at 835 Market Street.
You will need to take the Coast Starlight from Portland to Emeryville which will take 17 3/4 hours. From there you can catch an Amtrak Thruway bus to San Francisco which will take 30 minutes to the Hyatt Regency Financial District.
