Works for me, but only shows fare on direct trains, not connections. Did you use the exact wording shown?I googled and can't seem to have this show up. What specifically am I looking for to make it work.

Worked here, using Chrome on laptop/desktop. Googled "Book trains between Portland and Seattle". Scrolled down below the ads.
It's not an actual browser "plugin", just a search feature.

Scroll down the results Google gives you and you should see it. It’s not a website, but Google results.I googled and can't seem to have this show up. What specifically am I looking for to make it work.
Wow, I'm blown away, this is amazing! It tells you exactly how many spaces are available at the current bucket!! And it's so fast!Over the past 6 months, we have spent countless hours redesigning RailForLess from the ground up. RailForLess is the spiritual successor to Amsnag, a service which makes planning Amtrak trips much more convenient with flexible scheduling and interactive visualizations. Since last fall, the site has been plagued with CAPTCHA issues which severely limited the capabilities of the service. These issues have been mitigated through a fundamentally new approach to the scraping process since Riley joined the project in October. This new powerful backend has expanded the capabilities of the site far beyond the functionality provided by amtrak.com. Some of the most exciting improvements include:
- Larger search date range (90-day one-way, 45-day roundtrip)
- Faster search times (30-60 seconds on average)
- No concurrency restrictions (many users can use the site at once)
- Interactive map with station/route selection
- Flexible date selections (date range, month, weekends, etc.)
- Price chart (more charts to come in the future)
- Average departure/arrival times courtesy of ASMAD
- Direct integration with Amtrak for booking and station/route information
- New modern UI with custom vector art and MUI styling
We hope you have as much fun using the site as we have had creating it. We’re always open to developing new features—feel free to reach out here or at [email protected] or on our subreddit with any suggestions.

Not able to search up fares for the City of New Orleans route. I've tried numerous date ranges, none of them work. It searches as normal but after searching for all the accomidations it gives an error message (most of the time, when I get an error, it's early on in the process).@trimetbusfan I've had similar issues on mobile - the UI is @tikkisean's department so I will leave that to him to work out.
As for specific searches that failed, do you mean that they failed after multiple retries or did they fail after a single attempt? The former would suggest an edge case that I need to handle, and the latter suggests an error on Amtrak's side that I can't avoid.
