We have been in Superline bedrooms, but not Viewliner bedrooms. What are the differences? We will be taking the Lake Shore Limited (westbound) in June.

I was informed today by an AMTRAK agent that my Business Class tickets (party of five) for a round trip to and from Kalamazoo, Michigan (Wolverine 355 and 352) over the weekend of 13-15 February 2015 are canceled and downgraded to coach. The initial story was equipment maintenance issues. The...

My wife and I will be traveling from St. Paul to Chicago on 23 Septmber 2014 and we hope to make it in time to catch the Wolverine to Dearborn. I made two separate reservations (roundtrip to and from Dearborn, and to and from Chicago and St. Paul). Given our past experience with the eastbound...

My wife and I are making another run to St. Paul, Minnesota from Dearborn, Michigan. We'll be on the Wolverine and then the EB. Our last trip on this route was just a few days before Christmas. The EB segment was delayed five hours and we ended up on a "made up" train going only as far as the...
