No animals except service animals. Your hometown airline, Continental, has an excellent service for pets called, I believe, PetSafe. They even have their own kennel/animal care facility at IAH. Since you don't fly maybe you could send the animal ahead.

Here's the link:

The pooch could travel with you in the cabin or go alone as cargo.

Sorry there are no pets allowed on any Amrak train except for service dogs. Years ago they were allowed if you had a bedroom. Afterseeing the mess on one station I can understand why they instituted that rule.
