Hi Everyone, I haven,t been on in awhile but I'm back now. Well we're down to 5 wks. and 2 days before we get on the EB from Chicago to Seattle. I'm hoping that someone out there can give me an idea as to how the weather usually is in the early part of May in Seattle. We will only be there for...

Hi Everyone, Just wondering considering the weather now is it possible that the EB can be canceled in May? For those of you that have traveled this route in May what usually happens if there is a lot of snow during the winter like this year. I realize most winters aren't quite this bad but any...

Hi, It's me again. All of you are going to wish my trip would hurry up and get here if I don't stop asking questions. I have three months from tomorrow. Maybe I should say all of you have three months from tomorrow. OK heres the question. Since we have a roomette on the EB and I know which car...

Hi Everyone, Seeing as how we are going to be on the EB for two nights in a roomette will one pillow be enough or should we ask for two? Are the pillows of average size or smaller? I kind of figured they might be nice to use for padding during the day. Please take the time to answer this. As I...

Hi Everyone, As I've mentioned, my husband and I have got a sleeper for our trip in May on the EB. One question for those of you that have done this, my husband is six feet four inches and weighs about 217. Can he sleep comfortable in the upper bunk? If not what about the lower ? Thank You...

Thank you all again for all your help. The maps really come in handy. I have printed them out. I read a review about a restaurant called Pikes Place Chowder. They said it was very good. Have any of you ate there and if so what did you think? Any and all information will definately come in...

Hi Again, I decided to take you at your word and got online and decided to find a hotel downtown so we wouldn't have to worry about how we were going to get there. I think I lucked out because I got what looks like a really nice room in the Inn at Harbor Steps. I have been reading the reviews...

Thank you for all the information. I am a little confused, the quality inn we're staying at is on John st. Is this the same one that also has an Aurora address? Also rain does not scare us. We live in central Florida. We live and breath liquid sun shine. Especially since our son and grandson...

Hi Again, Thank you for your answers to yesterdays questions. That being said I forgot one. I'm sure I'll find more as time goes by but hopefully not to many. I am just curious, but since we board the EB around 2:00 p.m. will we be served lunch or should we eat before we board. Well since my...

Hi Again, Thank you so much for all your replys. I have already applied for all the information from Amtrak. Also the pictures that you posted Railfreak are beautiful. I booked this trip back in June. Seems like we are never going to get there. I know I'm wrong but it's been along time. Well...
