System Error

I cannot reserve tickets on line through Amtrak's website because this message keeps appearing every time I select to purchase. Anyone having these difficulties?

It seems to be working for me.

I've seen that because of a number of things. Two are:

• Waiting too long to actually buy the tickets after first picking out the trains. Exit out/log off then clear your cookies and see if the problem goes away.
• Picking something online can't handle (like three in a room). Call for any odd things as online can't do everything and often gives cryptic replies.

This was a frustrating error for me. The Amtrak people didn't seems to know, either. First suggestion was that I was using a different passenger designtion than the one in my profile. Not. The error code came up as soon as I selected a train in the schedule.

Finally, after restoring my computer back to prior to the problem (I thought) and still not resolving the issue, I was perusing the internet options. Under 'Content', just for grins, I disabled the Content Advisor. Wa-La!!! Amtrak now works.

(Makes you wonder what their site has on it that the content advisor would find objectionable, doesn't it??)
