But at least there IS a headlight left. :giggle:I feel like that headlight each time I'm on 2150 leaving DC....Exactly!

Only if they "train" on the Auto Train!Hey! My autos are registered!I have auto-registration.
It's the 7xxx buses I believe, that give no points. 8xxx buses, such as the routes that stop in my town, do.Is it 8xxx buses that give no points? I'm thinking of the Lynchburg-Roanoke connection.
And the BBQ runs resume! :giggle:Double Days are here! ... Let the Points and the Good Times Roll!!!
Moi? Whatever makes you think that?And the BBQ runs resume! :giggle:Double Days are here! ... Let the Points and the Good Times Roll!!!
Sounds like it. As far as I can recall it's always been that way, where they'll give double points for the two biggest point segments for each calendar day. If I take two minimum point segments (same direction as a multicity) in one day, both segments get doubled.It says "limited to two one-way trips" per day.
If I take a round-trip to Battle Creek, is that considered two one-way trips?
That's eligibility for minimum-point segments that accrue towards AGR tier points and regular point accrual. Since I've been enrolled in AGR, the Double Day promotion has always been capped at two doubled-point segments per calendar day.I always recall it being in segments, as in four segments. I think this is a recent change? Maybe?
Oh well. 400 points per day plus the card bonus is still pretty awesome. A round-trip to BC is about $15.
Yes, they now cap the bonus at two segments per day, you can ride four segments but the second two to post don't get a bonus. If you ride more than 4 individual segments in one day the 5th and later segments to post doesn't earn you any points at all.It did use to be 2 ROUND TRIPS or 4 ONE WAY SEGMENTS per day. If you go from NYP to HFD, you need to take 2 different train numbers, connecting in NHV. Do you only earn 2X one way? :huh:
TQP promos are very rare. I think the last one was in 2012 and god knows the last one before that. That TQP promo in 2012 actually helped me hit Select Status for the first time. Since then I've qualified. I'm actually a Select Member until 2016.In my opinion I would actually prefer Double TQP days.
I think that's the case only for minimum (100) point segments. I don't think there's a maximum number of segments that could post per day for points/tier bonus/TQP provided no more than four are minimum. For instance, I think I could probably do something locally like book a 4-segment multi-city from SAC-SJC to get 100 points each segment, then take the CS from SJC-SEA and get whatever that earns based on the price (starting at $164 [328 points] for tomorrow booked right now).Yes, they now cap the bonus at two segments per day, you can ride four segments but the second two to post don't get a bonus. If you ride more than 4 individual segments in one day the 5th and later segments to post doesn't earn you any points at all.It did use to be 2 ROUND TRIPS or 4 ONE WAY SEGMENTS per day.

Plus Fall is 2 weeks away (from the start date of the promo).Hmmm... No one else has commented on the misleading advertising. The promo clearly states "All Routes, All Fall". Well, Autumn ends on 12/21, but the promotion ends a good 5 weeks earlier.
