    Rude Employees

    Hello All, I could use some assistance. I have an issue I feel that lies beyond the normal customer service phone line. I am currently on the eastbound Cardinal (8/25). The crew is TERRIBLE. Worst crew in my extensive 100,000+ miles of train travel. The only good crew member is the view liner...

    COVID-19 (Coronavirus) Pandemic: Amtrak-related Discussion

    I just travelled on the Capitol Ltd. Wednesday and Yesterday from WAS-CHI. Sounds like the SSL is coming off the consist and the diner will act like a CCC again with the cafe and flex - dining in the same car. After hearing this, I think it’s safe to assume this will also happen on the CONO...

    Texas Eagle getting "Contemporary Dining?"

    I hate to say it... but on the TE, the CCC design in the diner just hurts the crew when there is a SSL, because 1/2 the car is dead weight, and they are WAY understaffed. Which I guess leads me to this question. If on the TE, I saw a LOT of coach Pax eating in the Full Service Diner, and even...

    Texas Eagle getting "Contemporary Dining?"

    I Rode on #21 last Night, and had a wonderful dinner! The LSA said the contemporary dining is a close reality on the eagle, and is being talked about happening on all routes by the end of the next 18 months. She was a very seasoned LSA, and definitely seemed like she knew what she was talking...

Because that is the implication I am given. I...

    Viewliner II Part 2: Dining Car Production, Delivery, Speculation

    Does Boston Commissary stock Acela? IMHO If Boston can stock a first class cafe on Acela, which serves Breakfast, Lunch, and Dinner, can't it stock a slightly modified diner? https://www.amtrak.c...-Menus-0417.pdf Here is the Acela menu, suitable for a diner? I am prob. missing something here...

    Viewliner II Part 2: Dining Car Production, Delivery, Speculation

    I'm sorry if this was already asked, but if a V2 were to be used as a Diner - Lite, or in the same format as the XC Cafe cars on the CONO, what else is needed In a commissary? They already serve Northeast Regional Cafes, but also Acela, Correct? and the Acela menu is a full menu...
