Does anyone know if taxis are available at the Gallup NM Amtrak station? I'll be arriving on the SW Chief in the morning and then need to get a ride to a car rental agency so I can drive to Durango CO. Alternatively, does anyone know if any of the local car rental agencies will pick up at the...

Does anyone know the highest elevation reached on the Sunset Ltd?

I'm taking the Sunset/Texas Eagle tomorrow (Tuesday) evening from Tucson to Los Angeles. SL is on time, but TE is running about 3-1/2 hours behind schedule. Will that time be made up tonight in San Antonio?

I recall reading in old posts that the electrical outlets in Superliner roomettes lack sufficient amps (watts?) to power a hairdryer. Four questions for the group: 1, Is it correct that hairdryers can't be used in roomettes? 2. Do the electrical outlets in Superliner bedrooms have...

In July we'll be traveling from Tucson to Los Angeles on the Texas Eagle/Sunset. With the new schedule, we depart Tuscon at 7:35 pm and arrive Los Angeles at 5:35 am. Will they still be serving dinner when we board in Tucson? If so, should we ask our attendant when we board to make dinner...

We'll be boarding the westbound CZ 5 in Denver. Scheduled departure is 8:05 am. I assume we'll be able to have breakfast in the dining car, assuming the train arrives halfway on time. In the event that the train is running late, does anyone know how late breakfast is served in the dining car?

I'm taking the Empire Builder next Monday from Portland to Chicago. Is there a dining car when the train leaves Portland? With departure at 4:45 pm, dinner should be soon after departure.

We would like to go on the Empire Builder -- don't need to get anywhere in particular, just want to enjoy the trip. So a few questions: 1. Which is the better way to go, east or west? Looking at the schedule I would assume east, so as to go thru Glacier during the day. 2. Has anyone gotten...

Today's NB Coast Starlight left San Luis Obispo 1 minute late, but arrived in Paso Robles (normally an hour away) almost 2-1/2 hours late. Anyone know what happened? Seems like the 14 is running late more days than not lately (at least from LAX to the SF Bay Area -- I haven't been checking...

Has anyone measured the height of the space under the lower bunk in a superliner roomette? I've read that "flat" bags work best, but that doesn't tell me much. Thanks.
