Any chance now that Amtrak is going back to daily trains that the Amsnag app might start working again? My recollection was that is stopped working about the time Amtrak went tri weekly.

The pre-Amtrak Auto Train used Marriott Corp to cater all the meals on board. Marriott had kitchens at both Sanford and Lorton. I have not seen any of the menus, but I understand those meals were well received. If Marriott can supply good food on long distance trains, why can’t Amtrak copy their...

The track a train site has been down for several days. Only the trains in Canada re showing up. Do we think this is a log term outage?

I want to take a trip on the Silver Meteor from Washington to the Miami area this fall. The train trip is really the destination, so my question is where to get off for the turnaround in South Florida? Which locations have the best stations, Lyft, and nearby hotels for a quick turn around? West...

My wife and I have done almost all of the central and western Amtrak trains and know the ins and outs of most of the transfer points. But for this year’s (2018) trip we plan on taking the Acela from Washington Union Station to NYP and connect with the Lake Shore Limited going to Chicago. I’ve...

Perhaps the Amtrak bottlenecks on CSX will improve under new leadership. Or Not?

I’m in the very early stages of planning a trip from Washington to Chicago and have never taken an Acela or the Lake Shore Limited as part of my travels. So my thought was to take the Acela from Washington to NYP and change trains same day to Lake Shore Limited. Having heard how crazy Penn...

I'm enjoying watching the two Eagles travel their detour route through central Texas. They normaly fuel up 21 and 22 in Fort Worth. By skipping Ft Worth I wonder where they will service the trains?

I can't find any car layouts for the Acela trains. This is a geat site, but no Acela. I especially want to find out the size of the over head bins. http://www.craigmashburn.com/amtrakcardiagrams.html

The "new results page" link is down today. It's a great addition to AmSnag and I hope it comes back.

I’m in the early stages of planning a trip from Washington up and through Boston, continuing west to Chicago. The plan is to depart from Washington on the Acela either business class or first class and travel to Boston. We would overnight and perhaps sight see a bit then take the LSL on to...

Both are just west of SAS in service disruption. They had a lot of rain a few days ago, I wonder if thaat is the issue. I was scheduled to be on tomorrow's 1 out of NOL, but have now canceled.

Spring 2016 Auto Train round trip from Sanford to Lorton and return. On April 17 Pam and I were headed to Lorton for the Auto Train with a return April24, a week later. My youngest son lives in Woodbridge, VA and is just a few miles from Lorton, although it can sometimes take an hour on I-95...
