I am still a newbie when it comes to train travel. I have done a couple of short trips but nothing too long and complicated. Next week I am riding the Zephyr from Denver to Salt Lake City and back again. I noticed that the last 5 days the Zephyr has left Denver pretty much on time but has been late leaving Salt Lake a lot. On Monday they were 4 hours and 30 minutes late leaving. :angry: :angry: Since it leaves Salt Lake about 4am this is a concern to me as I really don't want to be waiting at the train station that early in morning when I could have been in my warm bed.
So my question is: If I call Amtrak at 3am will they give me the straight story about whether the train is on time or not? Would it be safe to trust them if they tell me the train is running an hour late, for example, or would it be safer to just wait at the station.
Thanks to all of you in advance for your responses!
