Exactly! There is no train service between Houston and Dallas. However, I'm having problems booking the Texas Eagle.

Has Amtrak booking site been problematic all day or it just me having problems? All day I’ve been getting a message saying they are experiencing difficulties and try later.

Thats insteresting.

Ok I see now. Thanks!

On the Intercity Rail Maps, Amtrak CONO shows train number 1059 instead of the usual 59. Is that a typo? https://asm.transitdocs.com

It seems like these route proposals get tossed around and an eventual service never starts. Maybe this will end differently.

Hello. I live in Texas in a small town and the proposed high-speed rail will pass within walking distance of my home!! Unfortunately, my land is not needed; so, no money for me! And my town is not the mid-stop. However, I am excited about this much-needed advancement and don't understand why...

Wouldn't it be great if all Amtrak long-distance trains had at least one Auto car that loads and unloads vehicles at each endpoint? Using reservations, it would be first come first serve. Once it's full, no more reservations. On the trains that prove to be popular, more than one Auto car could...

Thanks!!! That's what I needed to know.

With a six hour layover and transfer in Chicago, I plan on having a two-legged trip on two long-distance routes. Only on one train will I book a roomette and will ride coach on the other. Since the layover in Chicago will be six hours, I want access to the Metro Lounge. Does it matter if I am...

They’ve announced a complimentary dinner for all because of the extreme lateness of the train. They are serving beef stew.

They just announced free Dominoe’s pizza for everyone on our 15 hour late train. Nice touch Amtrak!! I appreciate that.

Yes I was on the Tucson cam.

David, an attendant in the train is best I’ve seen on an Amtrak trip!! He has been super friendly and has done anything within reason for passengers. He came through with a vacuum and cleaned up some messes left behind by people getting off the train. He has made sure trash bins are emptyed. He...

We are severely behind, Amtrak staff is bending over backwards to ensure we all are comfortable and know what’s going on. Thank you staff for making this not a horrible experience.

One of the attendants just told me we are stalled now because the conductor has ran out of permissible hours. Therefore we are waiting for a replacement conductor to arrive.

Well you all won’t believe this. We arrive last evening 6 hours late in El Paso. We left El Paso and shortly afterwards we stopped and have not moved since. It’s 4:36am and we have not moved since about 8:00pm. I went to sleep and woke up thinking we were in Cali. Wow was I wrong! They did...

I’m definitely not a train engineer! I’m only explaining what I heard the conductor say. Hopefully I understood correctly.
