I wonder what made the changes... I know I'm not here regularly, but I come here whenever I have a plan with Amtrak. I'm kind of behind in the news about the changes, I kind of like the sleeper on the upfront instead of the back. Anyhow, I hope you have a good trip on the CS, EB and SW...

I checked the reservation and it shows I'm in the car 0532. I thought the sleeper is the first behind the engine and baggage car and coach on the last?

Ok thanks! I remember the last time my room was in the back car and in front of the dining car. I think I'll like the center better than the front or back of the car. :)

*** NOTE THIS THREAD IS 3 YEARS OLD *** just another update: Just booked for the Zephyr trip this time westbound! Going to be fun, been a while since I had the long distance Amtrak ride and of course going to be in a sleeper roomette! :) I'm booked on room #4 which I assume would be...

Hi Folks, I am wondering if any of you guys made any deals with http://www.amtrakvacations.com/ and/or http://www.keyholidays.com/ or hear any feedbacks? I am looking into a 2011 vacation plan and would like to see any feedbacks with those travel agency for Amtrak. Thanks in advance and Happy...

Thanks guys! I missed the connection to the Wolferine train because the CZ was too late and I ended up 'bussed' to the designation. The train crew was very nice and the engineers even waved when their train approached to my station as you can notice in my video. It would be nice if the...

Hello Folks, I went on the CZ last month and the trip went very well besides it went almost 4 hours behind schedule unfortunately due to freight. The crew was awesome, the journey is beautiful scenic out the west. I took the camera with me and took about an hour worth of video for the...

Yeah, I'm sure they can find a place to park. I can always text someone when I am about to arrive so they do not have to wait long. ;)

I am wondering about the station parking in Kalamazoo? I looked it up in the google map image of the station, and there seems to be 2 parking on each side of the station. I have phoned Amtrak and they did mention short and long term parking and didn't specify which street. I have a...

Voted Coast Starlight as I've rode this train several times and most recently last year on a sleeper roomette from Bay Area to Seattle. In 2 weeks will be my first experience on the CZ.

Hello I am member of AGR... and I see a faster way to earn points thru Chase credit card. I have not applied online for processing, but I have a question and concern about the sensitive personal information such as SSN. Have any of you have problems apply for the credit card? I have not...

Are you going to use sleeper on the CZ? Anyhow, hope you able to find a company on the trip. I'll be going on CZ from bay area to Chicago next month. I hope you have a pleasant trip! :)

I've noticed there is service disruptions in the past week involving the CZ. There was a storm in that area that caused flooding, they should have the area cleared soon and be back to normal hopefully. I will be going on CZ next month and should be normal by then.

Well, it will be a month away for the journey on the CZ on July 17th. :D Is there anyone else going in that journey on that weekend? Have any of you meet with any deaf people on the train? I hope to meet new people on the train... how are the crews on the CZ are they great to the...

Makes sense... thanks!

Which side is Roomette 9 on the CZ? If it's on the left side, then I will have a better scenic view.

I just joined the AGR the other day and it is awesome! I see a lot of ways to earn points, my question is: do I have to use them online only or I can use them at the retail store such as Lowe's, Macy's, Best Buy... etc? Thanks!

Thanks! I do have AGR membership... since it is only $7.50 upgrade, I can go to Amtrak station to pay cash for the upgrade... is that possible? It is less hassle going through the CC that I made reservation with. I do agree that AGR is very much worth to have! :D

I looked it over on my reservation, and since i am going on Wolferine after CZ.. I have a reserved coach seat, I looked up on the Amtrak site, and they do have a business class seat for $7.50 more. It seem not much of a difference, only comfortable seat and complimentary beverages and...

As many of you have preferred westbound CZ, as I made a thread here about going eastbound. I'm guessing is that I may miss the most scenic route going eastbound? It will be my first time on the CZ this July, next time I will try the westbound CZ on the way back home. I've notice that the...
