Hi all.
I've had a round trip on a Southwest Chief roomette scheduled for mid-February for some months now. It's tied in to a specific event I'm attending, so I can't change the date, and am getting very concerned that there may not be a train for me to take come Feb. 12 due to strike action.
If a strike does happen, does anyone have any idea what Amtrak would do to compensate advance ticket holders? Would we get a full refund? Would we perhaps instead have substitute transportation booked and paid for for us? (In my case it'd have to be bus as I don't fly.)
Also, what odds would people here put on there being a strike?
