    Credit Card and AGR Number

    I haven't experienced any problems with that since "day one". My (and my wife's) points have been posted each month on schedule.

    Credit Card and AGR Number

    FNBO uses the email address to link the two (your CC email of record must be the same as your AGR email).

    Metrolink (Los Angeles) outage in December 2023

    The East Bank Line (also owned/dispatched by Metrolink) is easy. The Alameda Corridor part to the BNSF San Bernardino Sub to Fullerton will be interesting.

    Metrolink (Los Angeles) outage in December 2023

    From the Pacific Surfliner website: "Los Angeles Union Station will temporarily close for track and signal upgrades from Dec. 26 through Dec. 29, 2023. During this time, for the first time ever, the Pacific Surfliner will bypass Union Station to journey along the east bank of the Los Angeles...

    FNBO closed account and deleted points - any chance to reinstate?

    BTW, using the "Points for Shopping" and earning points that way will also keep your account active. I do that with Home Depot and Staples from time to time. I have the credit card so points expiration is not an issue for me.

    FNBO closed account and deleted points - any chance to reinstate?

    Once points are credited to your AGR account, FNBO has no control over them. Losing them is strictly an AGR issue. The closing of your credit card is an FNBO issue, AGR has nothing to do with the status of the card.

    Three-day Pass in Germany -- Feb 1970

    Interesting. I'm enjoying your photographs.

    Catching the Sunset Limited from the Coast Starlight

    Any of that data should be taken with a grain of salt, much like the weather. What happened last year, last month or last week may not apply to the present or the future!

    Metrolink (Los Angeles) outage in December 2023

    It would be nice if Amtrak would issue a statement about this.

    Catching the Sunset Limited from the Coast Starlight

    I would overnight as well EXCEPT, the Sunset Limited is a thrice weekly train so, that overnight could become several!

    Japan’s railway manners

    While the posters are in Japanese, the message is clear. Very creative. (the article is in English) "Japan’s railway manners posters offer reminders on correct behavior with a light touch, along with charmingly playful designs." https://www.nippon.com/en/japan-topics/g02256/

    Metrolink (Los Angeles) outage in December 2023

    If the River Subdivision (which includes LAUPT) is out of service, Amtrak won't be able to access their 8th Street Yards (south of LAUPT) which is where servicing and "turning" of trains takes place. The River Sub includes both the East and West Bank lines from CP Taylor to Soto. From...

    Coast Starlight discussion 2023 Q4 - 2024

    1131 is the second sleeper from the diner, it is not the dorm. It is a standard sleeper but is not necessarily oriented the same way as the 1130.

    50/50 as to how they are oriented.

    Metrolink (Los Angeles) outage in December 2023

    Indeed, that is the holiday travel period but, keep in mind Metrolink is a commuter rail service. The period between the holidays is pretty light ridership for commuters (I've witnessed that) so, it is probably the best time FOR THEM to do this (and the heck with everyone else).

    Metrolink (Los Angeles) outage in December 2023

    "Metrolink trains will be out of service for four days starting on Tuesday, December 26 through Friday, December 29." This will affect ALL trains at LA Union Station, including Amtrak. Metrolink dispatches/maintains the tracks at LA Union Station so this will affect ALL trains at LA Union...
