Thank you!

When I was in Europe a few years ago I ran into someone from New York at a lot of the same places, we ended up deciding to travel together as we had almost the same itinerary planned (we didn't change hotels but just met up each day) We have remained e-mail pals ever since. It seems a little...

I have been told that there are often cabs waiting at the Anaheim station, however, if we are on time, we are scheduled to come in at almost 11pm. I would like to have a back up recommendation for a cab company in case there isn't anyone out there. Can anyone recommend a cab company for the...

Does the snack bar/cafe car accept credit cards or do I need to have cash onboard? I normally don't carry cash with me but may want to purchase snacks and need to know if cash is required. I know that the dining car is supposed to accept credit cards so was hoping that the snack bar would as...

Now I am starting to panic, we are scheduled to leave on Friday for my sons first trip to Disneyland. Albany Oregon to Anaheim trip. I hope all is clear by then.

We will be traveling coach. I am glad to hear that a much more complex trip than ours had the luggage make it. As I said in my first post, I have just had one to many bad experiences on airlines with baggage. We ended up not getting our luggage on our honeymoon and we were flying on a Cessna...

I really am not paranoid, however, after having my luggage lost several times on airlines I NEVER check my luggage anymore on planes. My question is how good is Amtrak about getting your checked luggage to your next connection and off the train at the same stop you are? We are going from...

I love the passion and the information that this board has!!!

I'm a pretty independent girl so I think if time permits I'll just go for it!!! Thank you for the directions.

We are taking the Coast Starlight from Oregon and then going to Anaheim. In the evening we are supposed to have a layover at Union station for 1 hour (I don't know that we really need Phillipe's that night however on the return trip I would love to run over and grab a couple of sandwhiches for...

So we have an hour layover at Union Station in Los Angeles on both legs of our trip. Is this enough time to make it to Philippe's and back without missing the train? It is hard to tell on mapquest. My other question, is this a walk that a woman should make alone at night?

I have been trying to get him to quit for 10 years, I don't know that this trip will do it. On our honeymoon last year because of flight changes he wasn't able to have a cigarette break for 26 1/2 hours. That was not a very joyful start to a marriage. :P Thank you all for the answers, at...

This is my first time posting, so forgive me if this question has been asked a lot before. We are planning our first long distance trip on Amtrak as a family in December (the day after Christmas) we will be going from Albany, OR to Anaheim. My husband smokes and is VERY nervous to be "stuck"...
