What happens if you miss your connecting train for a long distance trip? I've seen trains running 6-7 hours late at times. I'm riding the Lakeshore Limited west into Chicago and then after a 4 1/2 hour layover, boarding the Empire Builder to Seattle. If they don't make it in time to connect, what happens? Bused to Seattle? Airplane? Taxi? (Hope not). Does Amtrak take care of getting you there and pay your expenses? Thanks for the info.
