Another place you can find arrival times, as well as average delays, is http://www.amtrakdelays.onlineschedulingsoftware.com/. I got beat to it.

It kind of sounds like Dan plans to redeem an AGR reward for a sleeper on the outbound trip and redeem an AGR reward for one coach seat for the return trip while paying cash for his sons ticket. I would think getting the half off rate for the child's ticket would not be allowed as that would...

I rode a bus from Alton to Bloomington on May 7 to get to Chicago after the Texas Eagle was delayed in Arkansas. The bus operator was Vandalia Bus Lines. I am not sure who operates the busses that go to CHI but if it is a different operator I would think the busses would be similar. The bus was...

I kind of figured something like that was happening. I called Amtrak twice trying to find out, but was told both times the trains were actually sold out and not do to any other reason. Neither agent would look at space control to see if that was the case even after I told them I thought it was...

The Lincoln trains are shown as sold out completely between 6/1/11 to 6/9/11 and 6/16/11 to 6/21/11. It appears to be due to track work since the Texas Eagle is running from Saint Louis to Chicago with no stops. If its because of track work I would think they would provide bus service as they...

Amtrak is taking reservations for the equipment tour up to 3:30 on Saturday. I can't speak for the rest of the displays though.

I just got a call from Amtrak tonight saying they had an important message concerning my TE trip this Saturday from STL to CHI. When I connected to an agent, she looked up the reservation and said the important message was that my train would be running as scheduled and on the original...

I will be riding the Texas Eagle to CUS on the 7th for National Train Day. I hope to see the displays before my equipment tour at 3:00. If nothing else this gave me a good reason to ride the TE detour.

The longest one zone trips I have been able to find are Trinidad Colorado (TRI) to Wolf Point Montana (WPT) and Hammond Louisiana (HMD) to El Paso Texas (ELP). Both give you more than 70 hours of travel time. The first route is part of the old KWD to CBS loophole. I haven't booked the routes to...

On Friday and Saturday, the only times I've been there, the parking lots were fairly full at the Alton station. The last two times I had to park down the road leading to the station to get a spot. As far as I can tell, parking on the side of the road is ok as I have never seen anyone with a...
