I tried booking a trip for a trip on trains 5 to 14 to 28, but Amtrak's site won't let me. It will allow the reverse, though, going 27 to 11 to 6. So, the "route" is there in one direction, but not the other.
I thought at first that perhaps the connection between 14 and 8 was too tight at PDX, since the CS only arrives an hour before the EB is due to depart. But no, I can book any connection between them without problems. I can also book a connection between 5 and 14 without a problem (which makes sense, since the layover in SAC is 10 hours). So, if I can make either of those connections without issue, why not BOTH of them?
I've heard that when a route can't be seen on the website it's because ARROW doesn't recognize the route, but it clearly allowed a route between one set of city pairs in one direction, so what's going on?
