Conductor
I have done a lot of juggling with the car rental folks and they agreed to let me drop of the renter at the airport.(their downtown office closes at 8, Amtrak doesn't open the station until 10) I had planned on showing up about midnight for the 3 AM Eastbound Zephyr and waiting on the station for it. My comrades on Trip Advisor are telling me to have nothing to do with the station until directly before departure . They were blunt about the neighborhood and those who hang out there even being more direct about a nearby homeless shelter. They advised renting a hotel room to hang out in. Even though I was raised at Austin and Madison in Chicago in the 60's I have spent the last thirty years living five miles outside a town of five thousand. I may have lost many of my city social skills, and I don't want She Who Must Be Obeyed to be uncomfortable.
So what exactly is the real scoop about SLC and would you get a hotel room ?
