Both lines I guess? It blocked US-50, Broadway, & O'Brien street switching from Northbound to Eastbound. The Visitors Center is the old station, they fixed it up a few years ago and turned into a small museum.

3 intersections have been blocked for over an hour now. No word yet what's going on.

I remember it being a beautiful station my parents would let us go see when we were in town. It's sad to see how it's been neglected by the city.

We've had issues in downtown Indy before with young but adult men approaching my daughter a few years ago. She's not felt so safe since so I'm more leary with the area in general.

We live 50 miles south of Indy, not many choices with reasonable driving and arrival times for a 1 day trip. Still on the fence making the trip considering the state of Indy at all because it would be me (barely 100LB female) and my 15yo daughter.

Sorry gotta edit Chicago not Cincinnati. It departs Ind at 6am, with a 10am arrival. Then departs Chicago the same day at 5:55pm.

We're considering a round trip Ind-Chi same day just to get an idea of train travel in general. If they cancel Cardinal leaving Chicago, do they provide alternate transportation or are we stuck finding a rental?

I'm seeing July 2024 dates being priced the same as dates for this month on our route. Completely insane

Yes they are cleaner, they tested renewable diesel impacts on the Tier 4 in 2022 as well. Took a minute to find the public release. https://www.cummins.com/news/releases/2022/09/20/cummins-qsk95-engine-proven-fully-compatible-renewable-diesel

Being new to Amtrak, something I've ran into looking for random places we would like to go: because we're stuck with Cardinal at either Indy or Cincinnati, routes don't come up as easily or "don't exist" because of arrival time for a transfer. I've been able to cobble together some routes by...

I just bought today and policy is showed as 120-15 days refundable in original payment with 25% fee, but $250 is the maximum fee as well. 14-departure is voucher with 25%

Assuming pricing issues? One way for one person is now showing $409, yesterday 3 people was $528

I found a video from 11 months ago posted on a Cardinal trip, Viewliner II. Looks like there is a divider that can be opened.

I thought it did since it's listed as an optional for booking.

It's straightened out to 5000 A & B and roomette 5000 2. He was quite confusing because he said Amtrak only offers roomettes, bedrooms, and family rooms, which made no sense because they aren't listed as an option for Cardinal, but a suite is. They didn't charge more to get moved.
