    Amtrak long term service cancellations and restorations (2022-2023H1)

    Yeah, I missed the phone call about my 300 being cancelled while I was at work today. They didn’t leave a message (my inbox is probably full), but I found the corresponding email. Biz is sold out on 302, so really don’t want to do that. The shuttle to CDL for CONO connections isn’t an option...

    Will this work (itinerary for 15 day rail pass trip)?

    I can verify that STL is a 24 hour station with no carts available. There is security there, and random ticket checks are conducted (especially overnight)... The KFC/Pizza Hut combo closes at... I want to say 7 pm, but there is a little convenience store, for lack of a better term, in the...

    Austin to California and back

    Granted I live in the territory where they're more common, but yeah, I knew it even from that tiny corner by the engine heh

    Trip to MKE in Coach

    Did you like the popcorn?  NoC is one of my go tos when I'm passing through or spending a day or three in Chicago and I have spare money. :D

    Name That Station!

    While for some reason, I was thinking SLC, heh

    What's with the Zephyrs?

    My question is (since I've only just woke up, I don't expect Google to function properly for me), where is there a bustitution along the SAC-SLC portion of the Zephyr currently? I got the robo call saying that there will be alternate transportation over part of the route about a half hour ago...

    Sacramento Motels

    I'll add another endorsement for the HI SAC location - stayed there last summer, booked to stay there again this summer. I love (aside from the price point of other nearby hotels) that I can just come off the train and turn onto H Street to get there, without having to even set foot inside the...

    Lounge Passes bummer

    Sounds like inept Chicago to me, unless things have actually changed since my last attempt to enter the Metro Lounge purely on a coupon (disclaimer - yes, I did Metro Lounge in December, for those that follow my adventures off this site, but I also ultimately came into Chicago on 58 that day).

    Will you try for AGR status in 2016?

    With the minimum gone? Let's face it, Kirkwood will probably see a lot less of me, unless I get so desperate to get out of the house that I go wander STL county anyway, and end up at the station to say "hi" out of habit... For redemptions, though? Gathering the initial points will be more...

    Four New Trains and a Ferry

    Granted, it's been April 2014 since the last time I've been in Boston... But darn it, now I want a sandwich or two from Cheeseboy... Though at least with the supplies I do have handy, I could recreate one of the sandwiches I remember having during the course of the PAX East I did most...

    Points Shopping

    And I say "why waste money on something I'll kill, when that money could go to at least points runs?" :3 (seriously, my late grandmother was the last person in my immediate family that had any interest in making things grow).

    When a passenger train is delayed

    ... *raises an eyebrow* for the simple factor of "to have had the experience", that makes me half wish that they had not bustituted me - it's not like I made the Crescent that night anyway.

    #5 to #14 connect in EMY instead of SAC?

    Hmm... It *is* really starting to look like we were among the last handful of people to be allowed that connection, huh, Jim? :)

    More Points in Multiride Trips

    For some reason I think that station code was supposed to be BNL. :) Sent from my iPhone using Amtrak Forum
