    Amtrak/BNSF Ft Madison, IA Bridge hit by barge

    While it is always a good idea to monitor your train's performance, on the day of the incident, #3 was 12 minutes late departing FMD. The bridge was back in service well before #3 arrived; the incident had little or no effect on #3. From Dixieland: * GBB * * 1 526P * 539P Departed...

    Physical AGR Card

    My cards have always had a magnetic stripe on the back. The stripe (or card for that matter) have never been used in my experience

    Where did all the shopping partners go?

    Yes, that is correct. What is (still) missing is the shopping portal to go to Home Depot, Staples, etc. etc.

    Where did all the shopping partners go?

    BTW, this link no longer takes you to shopping (it did when first posted). If it is any consolation, I just did my monthly AGR account check and I had 563 points posted (on 4/23) for shopping at Staples back in January.

    Amtrak Timetables

    Pacific Surfliner has downloadable PDF timetables available on their website. Don't think printed (hard copy) ones are available. Capitol Corridor (Calif.) has a PDF timetable available. Amtrak San Joaquins have a PDF timetable available.

    Double Days 2024?

    Yes, but FNBO points are NOT doubled. Only Amtrak awarded points for travel. The original post was regarding Double Days promotion by Amtrak.

    Double Days 2024?

    EDIT to correct: 2 or 3x from FNBO (NOT doubled) plus 2x X 2 = 4 points from Amtrak. So, 6 or 7 points total depending on which card you have.

    Amtrak to Grand Canyon

    When I try a booking from Los Angles to Williams, it shows a "Self Transfer" (walking?) of 15 minutes. Is that what you are intrepeting as a "train"?

    LA Union Station - Baggage Carts Available?

    I should really know the answer to this as LA is my home station. Just never paid attention or had a need. Are baggage carts (airport type) available at LAUS? Or Chicago or anywhere else? And yes, I am well aware of Red Cap service - used them many times. Always helpful. Thanks, John

    Amtrak website/app issues

    Could geographic location have something to do with it? I'm in California and maybe my connection was handled through a different portal/server than yours in Florida.

    Amtrak website/app issues

    Just worked fine for me. Login ok and my account displays fine. Windows 10, MS Edge and Chrome both worked ok. The app on my Android device also looks ok. 0815 PDT

    "Train enthusiasts, skiers, travelers, volunteers — they gathered, some unknowingly but most fully aware, for a retirement celebration of Brad Swartzwelter, the conductor of Amtrak’s Winter Park Express."...

    California Zephyr discussion 2023 Q4 - 2024 H1

    I just watched 5 and 6 pass each other on the Arvada/Big Ten Curve camera while a freight waited patiently in the siding. 6(5) was 21 plus hours late; 5(6) was 6 plus hours late. 6(6) is running in the "green". Heard it was due to extremely high winds (90 mph)!

    And the sliding door between rooms B/C and D/E is a common source of rattle noise!

    Double Days 2024?

    How would you get points if you weren't an AGR member? Perhaps it would include an urge to sign up!
