Varies greatly, searching will give you the details.
For me it was shorter than other it seems as it only took 5 days with normal stops including a couple overnight stops. That's from Toledo, OH to Milpitas, CA (SF Bay Area).

Don't ask this to Ken! I swear his Seattle delivery went via the Florida Keys! I think his was on the train for 3 years (unconfirmed rumor 
).
It does seem to be slower when they use the train. I hope like hell I get the truck.

True rumor. After circling the Florida Keys his car was then railed to Anchorage, Alaska and then back to Washington.

Y'all are wrong. My rail shipment went very smoothly and quickly and I couldn't have been happier.
I mean......what's not to like about a 2,071 mile trek taking 5 weeks in 2014? After all, the Donner Party took less time
