A similar thing happened to me 10 years ago when the Capitol Limited was late into Pttsburg. Another passenger and i missed our connection to Harrisburg. Amtrak stepped up and hired us a cab to take us to our final destinations. Mine was Hershey, btw which is 15 miles from the Amtrak station in Harrisburg. We both tipped the driver well because we did not know if Amtrak would. Still, it was a good fare for him. I think it took four hoursYou did an excellent job describing the situation clearly and concisely. Plus, your request was made in a courteous manner. IMHO, you should be entitled to some compensation if for no other reason than you were not dropped off at the station.
but memory is fuzzy.
