I always take my CPAP unit. In a Bedroom I place it on the sink. In a roomette I place it on the top step. and I always bring an extension cord. Never had an issue.

I have 5 sleeper rides coming up. On all of them I got room C. I was wandering if it is the last room to be filled?

Thanks for the information. I am interested the scenery & riding the full route in both directions.

Looking for time on the train. This trip will be about 6,000 miles.

I am looking to travel from Chicago, IL to Centralia, WA. I can get a single ticket via the South West Chief with transfer in LA to the Coast Starlight. Arrival delay into Centralia is not a concern. My understanding is if there is a connection problem, Amtrak is responsible for getting me to...

CDL to DQN. $3.00, 21 min.

Does anyone know if it's still $6 per night parking in the fenced-in lot in St. Louis?

While checking prices to go round trip St. Louis, MO to San Antonio, TX. I got a roomette cheaper booking Chicago to San Antonio. Round trip.

I don't like such a close connection. I'd leave STL on the earlier train, I think it leaves at 0430. I have done this for all my long distance trips out of Chicago.

I have earned about 500 points since July. My biggest thing would be time to complete. It always seems longer than they suggest. I have a lot of the 5 point ones, but also a number of 30, 40 & a 100 point survey.

I understand your frustration when a computer is not working. I have never had to show my NARP card, but I don't know if the Amtrak system checks the number against the NARP roster. It seems like it just needs to see a number in that field.

Thanks for the replies. I checked my ticket. It does not say muti city. In the upper left it has PDX > KCY. I thought I found it on Amtrak.com first to see if it was a valid booking. I did call to book since it is a sleeper on points. Leaving PDX on Oct 27th. . Just planning ahead in case I...

If it makes a difference, This is a single point redemption, not 2 separate ones.

I booked a trip on points from PDX to KCY. I am scheduled to leave PDX on CS to LAX. Spend the night at my expense then leave the next day on the SWC to KCY. I tried that routing today to see if the price may have changed and it only shows one option. A transfer at SAC to a bus, then a segment...

I did a trip on CONO Tuesday. Had Rion for an SCA southbound. He was excellent. But the food was disappointing. Last round trip was a couple years ago & it was very good.
