OH WOW this is super valuable info, thank you sooooooooooooooo much!!!!!!! I am going to try this! I also am wondering how to get good discounts, other than the Amtrak mastercard I have!
Hi! I came here for this question! How in the world do you book certain car numbers? I haven't seen this online, right? Do you have to call and ask specifically over the phone? This would be for the Silver Star/Meteor. Which trains are you referring to?
ok so it sounds like maybe I should go from Jax to Charlotte, then on to Asheville by car? I also have posted a revision asking where would the closest mountain resort be if not this one, to where I'm coming from.
Hi! We are in Jacksonville, Florida. Have taken the train lots of times before long distances. Haven't been to a mountain town yet. We would like to stay in a mountain resort for a couple of nights. Where is the closest to the train stations on either of these trains? We would prefer going...
Hi,
We are thinking of Amtrak-ing it to the closest mountain town, that we can stay up in the mountains like in a cabin or hotel with hot tub etc. We would like to take Amtrak from Jax FL (or Savannah would be ok if needed), and don't mind renting a car from the tracks but not more than an hour...
