I'll be taking the Pere Marquette to CHI and then heading to DAL in a roomette. If I book both legs with points, the PM coach points fare are the same as biz class. Do I automatically get booked in biz class if I'm booking a roomette? Should I just book the legs separately? Do I lose my...

Time sensitive post..... I looked and have no idea where to put this but it is FUN! Cable channel Destination America is doing a marathon of a 5 hour real time ride on Railroad Alaska - from the cab no less! It's awesome!

I have to meet some people tomorrow coming in on Metra and they've never been to CUS. I can't remember if it's a fountain or just a big planting area but it's a good place to meet imo. I'm hoping someone has a pic - I've image searched and no luck so far. TIA and.... Happy Holidays!

I'll be coming into WAS on 30. Someone is going to pick me up. Where is the easiest place for us to meet? TIA Sent from my iPad using Amtrak Forum

Hey guys - TIA :) Is it possible to cancel part of a reservation, ie NEC, and still keep my low bucket CL sleeper fare? I don't WANT to cancel the NEC res but the person I'm meeting in BAL wants to pick me up and drop me off at WAS. They're kind of excited about the whole thing so I don't...

Thankfully, I'm not on it! Getting another engine to pull it. http://woodtv.com/2014/02/27/amtrak-train-stuck-in-snow-drift-south-of-holland/

I write this in bullets to make it easier. My concern is the way the weather has been and likely will be. I apologize in advance for not making sense but I'm trying :P I have to be in NOL no later than Sat. 1/25 I'll be leaving NOL on Sun. 2/2 and have no problem with that. I purchased a...

operate under the assumption that everyone is *smart* and understands what most people understand and don't take into consideration that 20% of the population suffers from some form of mental illness. They're not always trolls, they're just what they are. I know this will get locked, deleted...

Preferably in the last month or so. I was just looking at the menus and saw that the SB menu isn't an abbreviated one. Are they actually serving this menu or does it depend on the whims of the staff? Because I'd like more choices than the roasted chicken or vegetarian pasta which is what we...

I've searched high and low and all I can find is ridership numbers, ridership increases, etc. but not the number of actual distinct pax. TIA

My husband has graciously agreed to being tortured in my version of heaven by spending 6 nights in a roomette.... with me! :o :P :giggle: Here's the trip I want to plan: HOM (Holland, MI) to SEA Westbound: PM HOM-CHI SWC CHI-LAX CS LAX-SEA Eastbound: CS SEA-SAC CZ...

I might not make my EB connection - my train , 371, has been mucho delayed and we just started moving again. Flooding & crew change. If I miss it, where should I head to first - bypass pax services and go straight to the tix counter or what? We zipping along right now but that could end as soon...

I'm so excited! Next week, I'll be going on my biggest Amtrak adventure so far. I'm heading westbound CHI-PDX on 27, taking 516 to SEA, overnight, then 8 SEA-CHI I'm aware that the OTP has been bad lately and I'll likely miss my Michigan connection when I come home. Also, landslides and the...

I did a search and can't find an answer.... My 370 CHI-HOM was cancelled on 3/30 (derailment in Gary - hazmat) We were put on a bus which wasn't all bad even though it's nothing at all like the train (express to the station, got in at the ETA of the train) I assume the ticket is considered...

I made absolutely no changes to an upcoming trip but received one of these today. It's not an e-ticket and all of the legs are the same. It has the old quik track bar code on it and says to print my tix or pick them up. What the heck? I already have an e-ticket. Does anyone have any idea...

Site was just down for maintenance, came back up and now you can sort your results by train, price, departure, and duration. Or maybe I never noticed this?

I did a few searches and I can't find anything that explains it to me. So would you guys be so kind as to give me (and others, I'm sure) a nice, bullet point, primer? If there's a thread/info somewhere, point me to it. I'm interested in one zone trips from Chicago. Can I originate and...
