    Untill 2/11 Guest Rewards

    The other day I got my select passes. I will never use them and have passed them on in the past. But this time they have my name and AGR # on them. It looks like I can not give them away. Am I looking at this right?

    CZ Omaha - Davis CA & back

    Tonight we just got in to Davis CA from Omaha. The train had the ever present toilet problems. I heard them call in a report over the scanner shortly after we left Omaha. It was the 532 car we were on. We just had a roomette not a real big deal. If I had a real room and the car had a VAC...

    A short SWC report for a short trip.

    SWC - Lawrence to Garden City & back the same day. A short report for a short trip. This was my first Superliner coach ride it was not that bad.

    Doomed Train

I can’t get the link to work tonight but a quick Google search of Amtrak status map will get you there (my typing I’m sure). Anyway from time to time there is a “Doomed” train earlier in the day I thought the following...

    MO River Runner KC-St Louis

    Last Monday 6/29 the wife and I took the MO River runner from KC to St Louis and returned on 7/1. We had business class seating. There are only 14–15 business class seats on the train. There were more people on the train than I thought there would be. I could not believe it that the Boy Scouts...

    SWC and Grand Canyon RR

    SWC from KC to Williams Jct. This is more of a comment on the GCRR. I have no point of reference on Amtrak travel but the wife and myself took out a roomette it served us well. I did go back to the coach car and tried out one of those seats. They do set better then what we had in the roomette...

    First train trip

    On 4/21 the wife and I are going from KC to Williams AZ. Then take the GCRR and spend the night at the canyon, and back. We are looking forward to the trip. And I intend to post a report. I have never taken a long train trip. If this works out I can see a number of other train trips to take.
