    Vaccine proof required for NYP lounge

    I received my shots at the VA and California did not have a record. They just asked me to upload a photo of the card and driver's license and I had the link to the state card in a few days. It is just a QR code and shot info at a web page. You have to take a snapshot of it and save that. It is...

    Need help with Google Maps

    I am going on a train trip next April from Chico, CA to Chicago. I decided to run Google Maps on my iPhone. The last time I used the app was years ago. I noticed I had a saved map of the Amtrak route. I do not remember how I created it. It shows all the stops along the route. It is possible that...

    Did I find a timetable error?

    It must be relatively recent since the last printed timetable does not have the 9 minute stop.

    Did I find a timetable error?

    I was playing around with the timetable for a future trip on the CZ. A timetable search showed the following. Route 6 9:00a | 9:09a - Ottumwa, IA (OTM) Route 5 6:53p | 6:53p - Ottumwa, IA (OTM) Why would there be 9 minutes for a stop only in route 6? I think 9:00a should be 9:09a. What do you...

    Need Amtrak trip and route planning help. Who should I contact?

    I would use a travel agent for something that complicated. They are free and get a percentage from Amtrak. Note that just because a travel agent has Amtrak in their name does not mean they are run by Amtrak. They just pay a license fee to Amtrak. Amtrak does not have its own travel agency. You...

    It was strange but clearing the Amtrak cookies fixed the problem.

    Amtrak Site Maintenance

    Strange!. It works in Edge but in Chrome I get "We are currently conducting site maintenance" even after refreshing the page and browser. I cleared the Amtrak cookies and it now works.

    Select Your Own Sleeper Room Number Online?

    I made a room reservation for next April and got Superliner room D. If they had given me A I would have called. A is at the end and a little smaller and arranged differently.

    Most problem plagued trip

    What is your most problem plagued trip. Mine is as follows. This was in 1990. I was traveling Sacramento, Chicago, New York, Philadelphia, Washington, Chicago, and Sacramento. There was about a day layover in each city. Outbound to Washington went smoothly. There were many stops on the trip from...

    Did the CZ combine with another train out of Chicago in the past

    As I indicated in my original post there were problems where the CZ out of Chicago was not able to cross the Mississippi. There may have been problems with other routes and they were all combined and ran out of Omaha. It was on 3/11/90. I think it was originally scheduled for 3/10. I was flown...

    Did the CZ combine with another train out of Chicago in the past

    I am pretty sure it was in Denver but SLC is a possibility. I remember it was about 2 in the morning I had to switch. I think it was in 1990.

    Did the CZ combine with another train out of Chicago in the past

    Years ago due to problems with the CZ crossing the Mississippi I was flown to Omaha to catch the train. For some reason they placed me in a room that only went as far and Denver where I had to switch rooms. I assumed that the train split and part of it went to LA. Was this ever true or am I...

    Are there any plans to enlarge the NY Penn station tunnels?

    With the amount I am paying for my next trip I feel that I am already paying for it.

    Amtrak Twitter feeds on Discord

    I started programming around 69 too. It was great when we finally got terminals to enter our programs and run them with no cards involved.

    Are there any plans to enlarge the NY Penn station tunnels?

    It would be nice if Superliners could go to NY.
