    Amtrak long distance fares 2021-2023

    I could not find the San Francisco to Chicago fares, but did get comparable Coach and Pullman fares for Colorado Springs to San Francisco to be $41.88 and $52.68. However I am confused by the "FARES FOR OTHER STANDARD PULLMAN ACCOMODATIONS" but know someone can explain this.

    Downeaster discussion

    In no way am I a gourmet or picky eater, but between 4 meals each for my wife and me, I sampled all 5 of the Flex Dining entrees on our Silver Star Roomette trip north on 7 June and south on the Silver Meteor on 28-29 June. All are just barely eatable. If you are hungry. Luckily we had a...

    Amtrak footwear requirement?

    So, what can happen if a passenger is wearing, say, Adidas Sliders or Kenkoh sandels, with no other foot-ware in luggage?

    Moynihan Train Hall

    Time-wise, what can two people with two small bags reasonably see of Moynihan Train Hall and the lounge during a [scheduled] 1:25 transfer from Train 93 to a roomette on Train 97 Silver Meteor? In preparation of my first LD trip in a long time [round-trip TPA to BOS and on to BRK], I have been...
