    Our First Experience on Amtrak

    Your trip was much worse than mine. A/C seems to be an endemic problem with Amtrak. Also service with an attitude. You are a real trooper willing to do it again. Tampa to Miami? That's only what about a 6 hour car ride? I would drive before venturing on Amtrak again.

    Who is doing the destruction? Employees or passengers? A small TV in the roomettes would be nice. Why are they not being prosecuted? Destruction of government property is a biggie. http://www.justice.gov/usao/eousa/foia_reading_room/usam/title9/crm01666.htm

    My Amtrak Experience.

    Sound like a plan to me. I'm willing to pay more. Also find something a little better to sleep on and fix the AC and I would have been a happy camper. We went to ridiculous levels comparing services but in reality it wouldn't take much in terms of money and commitment to make things much better.

    My Amtrak Experience.

    No I'm not going to call Amtrak. They got me to and back from my destination in one peace. The attendant was not very good but he was not abusive just going through the motions. I just wish Amtrak was more comfortable and faster. I don't think I will live to see the day where are trains...

    My Amtrak Experience.

    Yes I saw that after I posted it. I had tried to upload some pictures of Indian trains that were equal at least from the photo to Amtrak. Did you see that luxury Indian train video I posted? This country has let the rail system to rot. I guess the airlines have a hold on the market and the...

    My Amtrak Experience.

    If our trains were like the ones in Europe I would think many people would take a train over a plane. Amtrak is like a 3rd world operation. http://www.bahn.com/i/view/DEU/en/services/index.shtml

    My Amtrak Experience.

    If you are going to be on the train for 26 hours with small children and could afford a room you should get one. It has nothing to do with being an snob. Pampering was a poor choice of words. If expecting the AC to work and staying hydrated is pampering then I guess that is what I wanted. If...

    My Amtrak Experience.

    LOL! What an attitude. I'm no troll. Look when you can't get a cold drink and the AC isn't working well that is pretty bad service. It is endemic to Amtrak. They don't care. You would like to fight me? Amtrak service on a whole was bad. My first attendant on the way up was rather good so...

    The whole Hitler and **** reference was a brain hickup. It made me think of this clip

    My Amtrak Experience.

    We had a good attendant on the way up. He really tried his best so I tipped him $20 bucks. You know if you try to make people feel comfortable most people will tip you. I think people still like money. Some of these Amtrak people are just plain lazy and rude.

    My Amtrak Experience.

    They could do a few things right now that wouldn't cost much money. My room was rather dirty. There still was some remains of the last occupant in the toilet. It was obvious that they don't do a a good job cleaning. Heck the attendant was running us out of our rooms so he could make the beds...

    My Amtrak Experience.

    In the end it was a nightmare service. I will not be using Amtrak again. I find it funny how many of you come to the governments rescue. Enjoy all the crappy service you can. I'm done.

    On the way up our attendent did give us sodas 24/7. I understand some would abusive with it. Is that my problem? Screw it!

    My Amtrak Experience.

    Yea airlines don't have to worry about damage to a TV. There is no excuse for some sort of TV. At least have great Wifi and let the people bring there own devices. I had pretty good reception with my iphone throuhout the trip. If I was manager of this train with not many limits on money. I...

    My Amtrak Experience.

    I'm willing to pay more hence the sleeper. As far as someone damaging a TV isn't that vandalism and worth prosecuting? So you are saying planes get Wifi and trains can't? Planes have TV trains not? Why? Not being a smarta$$ I would really like to know why. I used my cell phone in spots...
