Just back from a Seattle trip and very disappointed with Amtrak. Upon boarding my sleeper car Oct 30th in Chicago I found out that there is no Sightseer Car on the train, just a Superliner coach with a snack bar downstairs. The crew did no know about this until boarding the train. My reason...
In a few weeks we will be coming into Chicago on the Illinois Zephyr #380 scheduled to arrive at 10:33am. I have these tickets. Wanting to go on to Milwaukee for the day. If I buy tickets for #333 departing at 11:05 but miss this because of a late #380 into Chicago can I use the ticket on the...
I live 45 miles from Mt Pleasant, can't help but think in would be a lot safer than Chicago, small town, lighted lot. I think any of the Iowa station would be OK Just look at them on Goggle Earth, what is the closest for you?

I will be coming in LAX on the Sunset Limited on a Monday, I would like to take the train to San Clemente and spend the night on the way to San Diego. I see the Surfliner only has two trains that stop there a day. They depart LAX at 8:33am and 9:55am. What are my options if the Sunset gets...
I was there on Monday 1-28 and the celery had brown ends on it, I was there again 2-04 and it looked to be the same celery and dried out carrots I did use the shower there, nice but the need to giver you a little floor mat/towel and maybe some labels on the shampoo, conditioner, and soap.
It was my understanding the you can have outside food in ML but only at the tables out by the food and soda area. Monday the 4th I had a sandwich from Luke's and saw at least 2 other tableseating outside food at the tables. No one said a word.
Was told at breakfast there would be one seating for lunch and it
was pizza. Asked why, problems with the cook waitress says. I will ask more questions then but really wanted to try the baked chilaquiles. Thinking won't they have lunch supplies going to waste.
We had the small size roller suitcase with backpacks that slip over the extended handle of the suitcase. This worked good. Just myself leaving tomorrow with my good old Patagonia MLS carry-on that has the backpack straps, shoulder strap and handle. 19.8lbs for 6 nights, Macomb, IL to CUS to...
Are there Lifts going down to the Blue Line at the Lasalle Station? t\They have one that goes up to the Rock Island line. It is about 1/2 mile from CUS. The North Central Service line out of CUS does not run on weekends does it??
It sucks that that there is no easy way from CUS to the Blue line that is only to blocks away ( if you go out the right way from the station) seems like they could bore a small tunnel with people movers to the Clinton Blue Line station. I have done two block walk lots but only with a small...
