I got an email from Amtrak a few hours ago announcing a four-day sale:
Stretch your legs, not your budget, and save up to 30% on select travel Amtrak's Track Friday is back and we're celebrating with a 4-day sale, now through Monday. Save up to 30% on most Amtrak® routes when you travel between December 2017 and March 2018. Go on a weekend getaway or enjoy a day trip downtown for less when you book today. When you ride with Amtrak, you'll enjoy amenities without paying extra: • Up to two personal items and two bags for free • No middle seats and plenty of legroom • No airplane mode means you can stay connected the entire trip • Free Wi-Fi on most trains
And here's the fine print:
