Walked by the parking garage tonight and it's $8 for 12 hours & $11 for 24 hours.WIL has several garages & lots within walking distance. I know one of them charges up to $8/day. I think another one is $12/day.

At the current St. Paul, MN depot there is plenty of free parking. But when they move back to the downtown to the renovated Union Depot there will be zero free parking. I don't even think there will be parking dedicated to the Depot. There are plenty of parking ramps in the area, but as of right now, I don't think those ramps have any long term rates. I am sure that will all change once the Depot, light rail and the new transportation hub get up and running in the next year or so.
Like button Me gusta mucho.The parking lot at the Lorton and Sanford Auto Train stations don't seem to....um, never mind.
I don't know, Cindy. The city of Normal will be moving their offices to the intermodal center in June, but Amtrak won't move until later this summer. I believe the parking passes will be handled by the city of Normal and you could contact them to find out. Also, they are discussing the possibility of free long-term parking on the upper level of the College Avenue deck. I have no idea where that deck is. Neither the present, nor the future Amtrak station is on College Avenue.Thanks for this new information! We will be leaving our car parked at BNL for about 2 weeks next winter while on a cruise, in which case it would be cheaper to purchase the monthly permit. Do you know if we will need to purchase the permit in advance, or will we be able to get it when we arrive at the station, and before we board the train?When the new Intermodal center is opened later this summer, the city of Normal will charge $8 per day for long term parking. Frequent long-term users can purchase a monthly permit for $40. The first hour will be free.

Doh! Yes, I forgot about that completely - thank you for the reminder. I may have to turn in my ATL tour guide credentials now!You have obviously missed my multiple postings about the covered, secured parking in underground lot just one block north of the ATL station. $9/day last year when we used it.Depends on the location. Of course, then there are places like ATL, where parking is pretty much non-existent at any price. I usually end up at the Piedmont Hospital garage about 1 mile north of the station and hop the bus back to the station. Back on topic, pretty much everything I'm familiar with in NC, SC, GA, & FL doesn't have a parking fee. Having said that, if a parking fee would offer me something such as more security, I'd be willing to consider paying it.When the new Intermodal center is opened later this summer, the city of Normal will charge $8 per day for long term parking.

I've enjoyed free parking at BNL and various other stations for many years and am not very happy about this.
Is this the norm for Amtrak parking lots? Do you have to pay to park?
