    Amtrak Cascades 510/517 in Superliner

    Are the talgos under maintenance rotation? So that 510/517 switched to Superliner instead of Mt. Adams?

    AGR site: No transaction found

    Last night I found that AGR shows "No transaction found" even I set the start date to be 2007. The total AGR score is correct. Does anyone have the same problem?

    Paper tickets

    Just wondering is it still possible to get paper Amtrak tickets? Earlier this year, I was able to get paper tickets with non-Amtrak operated buses.

    Amtrak starts enforcing parking in Tukwila

    Today I saw two Soundtransit officers were enforcing Amtrak only parking spots in Tukwila station. I was told that starting 7/1, Amtrak parking will be strictly enforced in Tukwila, so no more commuter parkers any more!

    Travel posting not in order?

    The trip I made 2 days ago was posted this morning, but my four trips 3 weeks ago are still not posted. In the old AGR, the posting is within 7 days, and it's in order, but looks like new AGR is not?

    What's happened to AGR agents?

    Columbia River Bridge repair

    My wife is on Amtrak Cascades 516. The train is blocked at Columbia River Bridge. Passengers were told that it takes at least 90 minutes to repair the bridge. Bear in mind that 516 is suspended north of Seattle.

    Freight engine on Amtrak Cascades 510?

    I was on Sounder train this morning in King Street and saw today's Amtrak Cascades 510 with a BNSF (ES44?) freight engine at the rear. Wondering what's happened to the P42s and F59s.

    Cascades 508 failed engine (12/23)

    My wife was on 12/23's Amtrak Cascades 508. The engine failed at KEL. The train was waiting in KEL for 2.5 hours for a freight engine to come. It finally arrived SEA at 1am in the morning. It was the worst Cascades experience I've ever had.

    EUG-VAC Cascades possible?

    Although published as EUG-VAC, Amtrak Cascades doesn't have a single train that travels between EUG and VAC without a thruway bus connection. Is it because of the number of hours, or maintenance, or changing crew, or funding, or passenger need?

    Amtrak Cascades Wifi

    Since last year, I had problem connecting to Wifi on the old Amtrak Cascades train sets in coach cars. It'll be failed to obtain IP address. It looks like business class has no problem connecting to Wifi in any of the sets (old/new). I can connect on the new Mt. Bachelor and Mt. Jefferson sets...

    Amtrak Cascades 508 disruption?

    I'm going to pick up my friend from train 508. He got on Portland and told me that bus service was provided south of PDX. I checked the train status, but showed "service disruption" for train 508. Train 508 departed 20 minutes late from PDX waiting for bus connection from SLM. Not sure what's...

    Slow AGR travel posting

    I noticed that recently the AGR posting for Amtrak travel is slower recently. I traveled on 10/1 and 10/3, but as of 10/13, I didn't receive any points. Normally it takes around a week to post.

    Amtrak.com today

    Looks like Amtrak.com can only make one-way/round-trip reservations and check train status today. No logins, e-vouchers, smartfares, etc. But the mobile site is running fine.

    TUK parking problem

    TUK added 40 Amtrak customer only overnight parking spaces early this year. Other spots in the station are for Sounder train commuters, and they are daytime only. From then on, I started parking on those spots for the last southbound Cascades train (509, 6:19pm) on Fridays and back on train 508...

    [Cascades] Wifi on Cascades trains

    I used to have very good wifi experience on Amtrak Cascades trains, but recently (for almost a year now) I found that the wifi doesn't work on most train sets, particularly in coach. The two new train sets have great wifi service, but the 5 old ones are bad. If you are "lucky" to board on Mt...

    Amtrak Cascades to VAC, what to expect

    I'm taking train 510 from SEA to VAC next week. It's my first time crossing the border by train. Does it have custom stop at Peace Arch? How fast is the immigration check at VAC station? How bad is the on time performance of 510? I checked the history recently, it looks like 510 is running...
