Is there a list or link anywhere that shows the dining car hours for various routes?
For example, we're taking the Silver Meteor from DC to Orlando next February, and the train leaves DC at 7:30 PM. Since it's so late, I assume we won't get dinner? Anyway, I looked all over Amtrak's site, the timetables, and the dining car menu for the trip, but I didn't see any information.
Are the dining car hours universal? That would help when I'm trying to plan various trips. I don't want to start a new thread every time we take a trip that has a departure/arrival time during a meal.
I considered taking the 3:00 PM Silver Star, but the Capitol Limited from Chicago has an arrival time of 12:40 PM. I don't like those odds.
