    Best bets in the cafe car?

    I ordered the chicken strips. They were microwaved and awful. But both the hotdog and cheese burger were very good.

    Chicago to Seattle

    Not true at all... The prairies are wide open spaces...homes, small towns, history of the United States through your eyes.. An experience you will never forget... The train is like looking back in time!!!! Enjoy every minute.. I just took this trip and want to do it again.

    Hiawatha CHI-MKE turn during Chicago visit

    Milwaukee is a great town!! I'd stay away from the mall. Nothing good goes on there. I'd just take a long walk and look at the beautiful buildings. Take a cab ride to USINGER SAUSAGE COMPANY... the very best!! :mellow:

    I did just what the AmTrak web site said not to do:) I was so excited about my up coming trip I printed out my ticket (Empire Builder) now I want to go a week earlier Dec 12th iinstead of the 19th. Will the change be possible? I looked and the price on the 12th is about $250.00 less. Do you...
