    Emeryville to SFO

    There is an entrance to BART Embarcadero Station at Drumm and Market next to the Hyatt and cable car stop. No need cross Drumm and wall up Market.

    New Amtrak Arbitration Agreement

    Amtrak has posted new Terms and Conditions, the sort of thing that most people just confirm reading with a click and then ignore.  One item included is a new requirement that all disputes with Amtrak be resolved through binding arbitration and not through courts.  I'm not an attorney, so I...

    Emeryville to SFO

    Richond Amtrak/BART is in a pretty dodgy area. While maybe not a big issue if the Zephyr is on time and it is daylight, I'm not sure I would want to make that transfer from a late Zephyr at night with luggage.  If you are ticketed through Emeryville with the bus to SFF, you can still get off at...

    3 Points/Dollar: AGR Mastercard Purchases (ended 12/31/18)

    Maybe that's the issue. If you got the card in late October, your first statement would not have been until sometime in November.  It is possible that the promo was only for "current cardmembers" and, having not received and paid a statement, maybe you were not considered a current cardmember at...

    Emeryville to SFO

    Not the Trans Bay (SFC), Financial District (SFF). The Trans Bay does not have BART access.

    Emeryville to SFO

    You can take the Zephyr to Emeryville then the Thruway bus to the San Francisco Financial District (SFF) stop at the Hyatt hotel. The BART Embarcadero station is at the SFF bus stop at Drumm and Market. The BART trip is a one seat ride from Embarcadero to SFO.

    Amtrak no longer allowing standing passengers on unreserved trains?

    Amtrak runs the Shuttles, but they are state-supported just as the Keystone and Empire Service trains.

    AGR numbers and kids

    To clarify, I do not believe that you will earn points for the second person's rail fare regardless of whether that person is an AGR member or not.  Either that person earns the points as an AGR member, or if not an AGR member, no points are earned for that portion of the total fare. For...

    Joe Boardman questions current Amtrak's managements motives

    How many times did the now beloved "Mr. Boardman" boast that the NEC was "profitable:" to Congress, to the media, to anyone who would listen?  To do that he used the same accounting "tricks" he now derides to polish his image. Rewriting history.

    Acela Assigned Seating Experience

    There is a seating chart available HERE.

    Acela Assigned Seating Experience

    Airlines never "guarantee" your selected seat. A seat assignment is subject to change at any point. Having said that, in several hundred flights I can count on one hand the number of times I have lost am assigned seat. Also rare is to look at the seat map prior to purchase and then not get the...

    Monthly Rail Pass for Business Class

    I think you are confusing two different passes. This is about the monthly rail pass allowing unlimited rides between two specific stations for a calendar month.  It is a commuter pass.  Those passes are coach only, with certain services such as Acela and all Long Distance trains excluded...

    Chicago Union Station

    All the info I have says it is open - Amtrak.com, Google.  I was  curious if you had any information to the contrary since you believe it is closed.

    Chicago Union Station

    Do you have anything that says the Legacy Club has closed? Every reference I see shows it open daily 9 AM to 9 PM.

    Amtrak Riverside Call Center to Close - Jan 2019

    One of the three California-funded services - the Capitol Corridor - does not use the Amtrak call center. The CCJPA (manager of the Capitol Corridor) opted out of using the Amtrak center due to cost. Capitol Corridor uses the BART call center for phone inquiries but encourages web, app and kiosk...
