That's not quite correct. If you reserve by phone you cannot later pay by the website, but you can pay at a station or by phone.Bear in mind that you have to pay the way you reserve. If you reserve on the website, you have to pay on the website. If you reserve via a phone agent, you have to pay via the phone agent. Although for the phone agent, you do not have to pay at the same time. Amtrak will hold reservations for up to 7 days, depending on how far from departure you are, and the train (NEC apparently allows shorter holds).
That's true, and I used to do that a lot before eTickets, since there is a staffed station about 10 minutes from where I work. I just kind of forgot about it now with eTickets and I don't have to physically pick them up (or have them mailed).That's not quite correct.
