    AmtrakConnect home screen?

    Odd question I guess. I'm on an NEC train and just signed on to the trains wifi. I was brought to the captive portal screen to agree to the terms of use, then it took me to some kind of cool home screen that showed the next stop, time until arrival, etc. Once I clicked away from that, though, I...

    NEC trip questions, NYP to WAS

    lol okay, so, how does that work in practice? I go up to a Red Cap and say, "Excuse me, could you take me down to the platform for the 8:10am train to Washington?" :) Surely there's more of a trick to it than that...

    NEC trip questions, NYP to WAS

    Hi all, I'm excited to do a day trip NYP to WAS on Sep 3 with my wife. I last travelled on Amtrak about 25 years ago! I just have a few questions to bring my knowledge up to date. 1. What side is the most "scenic" side to sit on? (please tell me it's not the same side that opposite train...
