Keystones not reserved during Thanksgiving?

[Barciur]

Hello,

I was just looking at the Keystones around Thanksgiving time and they were usually reserved trains. This year, they are on the peak fares between Harrisburg and PHL, but they are showing up as unreserved. Will that change later or is this going to be different this year? If I buy now and it becomes reserved, will I still be able to travel?

Not sure, but I believe that Keystones and Pacific Surfliners require reservations during Thanksgiving.

The Keystone Service and Pacific Surfliner corridors operate on a reserved basis during the Thanksgiving holiday period.

Stand by.. They do require reservations... It'll switch to that in Later September Early in October. That's when the extra trains are put into ARROW for sale to the public.

Thanks for the swift response, guys!

Not a problem.. I would hold off booking tickets for that week until you know that they are indeed reserved trains. Cause I'm not entirely sure that if you book a ticket today for say 648 and it's an unreserved ticket, if at the time those trains go to reserved your reservation would carry over. If that makes any sense.
