Yes, that definitely helps. Thanks for the first hand information. I called this up on Google maps & can see the nice renovated lot. If all those spaces are for Amtrak, that looks like alot.

Thanks Paul. Was it a decent size lot? Amtrak says it holds 200, but Google maps looks much smaller, like maybe 30. Unless they use the lot across the street for overflow. I'll be there on July 4th heading out west and I'm thinking parades and the like. Could be more people using the lots.

Thanks for the info Como. I appreciate it. Ottumwa is a possibility then.

I'm coming from Macon Mo so all three stations would be ok, not too far of a drive. Ottumwa might be a bit closer, but not much. I would be traveling on the fourth of July so I would think it would be a busy travel time. I was trying to find which station had the most long term parking and maybe...

I did some research throughout the forum and found some post that favored Osceola, but the post were over 10 years old. Not sure if anything has changed since then. These small towns don't seem to have parking garages or similar to use as a back up plan. Maybe driving to Chicago may be the...

Hello. I am looking to book a trip to Sacramento from one of these stations. I would be driving several hours and am concerned about long term parking and safety at the station. Does any one have experience from these stations and have a recommendation? Any advice would be appreciated. Thanks...
