Could geographic location have something to do with it? I'm in California and maybe my connection was handled through a different portal/server than yours in Florida.

Just worked fine for me. Login ok and my account displays fine. Windows 10, MS Edge and Chrome both worked ok. The app on my Android device also looks ok. 0815 PDT

I doubt it. Its been a few years since I've done that and I don't recall breakfast being served.

I just watched 5 and 6 pass each other on the Arvada/Big Ten Curve camera while a freight waited patiently in the siding. 6(5) was 21 plus hours late; 5(6) was 6 plus hours late. 6(6) is running in the "green". Heard it was due to extremely high winds (90 mph)!

Yep. There is no link (that I could find) on Amtrak's page when I'm logged in.

The info about access during this construction project could be better. Within Amtrak's advisory ( https://www.amtrak.com/alert/chicago-union-station-access-impacted-by-street-project.html ) about CHI there is a link to an image which shows access points, etc. More useful than the Chicago Union...
