Oh my god. Yes. I couldn't have survived that in coach!

I'm currently in downstate New York visiting family, but I reside in Western New York. On Tuesday, my girlfriend realized that she had left all the course materials for her online class, back in the apartment up by Rochester.. This was Tuesday around 2pm. I decided it'd be a perfect opportunity...

Too bad we didn't chat!

Love this.

What a disaster. This is happening far too frequently, and only gives ammunition to those who want to defund amtrak.

This will happen as long as we have at-grade crossings. So, a long time.

CNN just said that someone was performing CPR on a conductor. (12:39 EST)

Were you in the Sleeper 4820? I was in 4811. Did you go to breakfast?

Just did another two legs, for a weekend, adding more miles and meals. The trip is over. The total mileage traveled was 10131 Miles. 16304 km. What an amazing adventure. Just to re-cap, the trip was NYP-MIA, Sanford to Lorton. STM-NYP-CHI-LAX-EMY-CHI-ROC-CHI-ROC I had many meals aboard...

Thank you for your work.

Uneventful train ride back to Rochester, except for a strange SCA. Just peculiar, and a bit unfriendly. We arrived into ROC 30 mins late, which is basically on-time in my book. While on the LSL last night, I got an email that informed me I had reached Amtrak Select status. The trip is over...

Arrived in Chicago roughly an hour late on Friday. Stayed in an Airbnb and hung out with friends, and had some amazing meals, including tonight, my last night, at Le Cochon Volant, The flying pig. The Foie Gras was exceptional, and then I had a nice chat with a cabbie from Mumbai. Now at the...

And, one week later, I got back on the train. Doing a weekend in Chicago with my girlfriend. Completely last minute. Decided at 6pm, checked the tracker, saw that the train was on time at ALB, nad made a last minute booking for a roomette. I had a 100 dollar voucher, which was given to me by...

I sent an email to Customer Relations.

Thank you all. It was pretty jarring.

Hi all! I just wrapped up a trip across the country. All in all, 'twas a great trip. Just had a peculiar experience at the Lounge in Chicago. Our LSL was running late, and the agent insisted on closing at 9, despite us not knowing when our train would leave. We were escorted to the general...

Just finished the trip yesterday. Was incredible

Back in Rochester this afternoon, 4 hours late into ROC. the CS was great. left LA at 10:10 and got into San Jose that evening. Had the burger for lunch, and the land+sea for dinner. Took a rest during the afternoon, had the bed made down at SLO. At SLO, I stepped off the train where my aunt...

I paid for the hotel out of pocket, or rather, using points, since I didn't want to risk being put in a poor quality motel out by O'Hare. No compensation from Amtrak since I dealt with it on my own. Currently on the CZ from EMY to CHI. will be at CHI in the next 2 hours. Will provide a full...

Those pork sliders were really good!
