    Trains 53 & 97 Late 2/24

    Again I'm only an occasional rider of Amtrak, but it's a shame that our rail system is so far behind other countries with less resources than ours.

    Trains 53 & 97 Late 2/24

    Like I said I only followed the trains on Amtrak's website "track your train" I didn't go on any other sites with charts etc. So sorry if I make people upset with what i'm saying. I'll still say Amtrak needs to be upgraded and made more attractive and afforable to take.

    Trains 53 & 97 Late 2/24

    Wow, I have never seen so many people come to the defense of Amtrak, I was supposed to take Amtrak in May 2017 to Orlando from N.Y. but cancelled for other reasons. But from the time I had made the reservation until just recently I was following everyday "track your train" on the Amtrak website...

    Trains 53 & 97 Late 2/24

    I don't ride Amtrak very often, so I am not an expert, but only today you have train 97 NY - Miami over 5 hours late, also auto train 53 over 9 hours late, that's crazy. Watch PBS special about trains just yesterday which showed Japan's bullet train which is very rarely late. Also no accidents...

    late trains

    First thank you to everyone that responded to my topic. I went back to ASMAD train status for arrival times from 1/2/16 - present, as per the info provided train # 97 was on time or early arrival 60 out of 251 times. Which to me is not very good, that's less than 25% of the time. As of train...

    late trains

    I have a trip coming in May 2017, Syracuse to Orlando. I have been following on Amtrak location map trains #97 & #98. I have found that the past 2 months both trains have been late about 75% of the time, anywhere from a few minutes to over 6 hours. I understand that CSX owns most of the track...
