    Crescent operations and schedule performance

    Only if they had a interest in passenger rail. I've struck up conversations with riders who live in Atlanta. Passenger rail advocacy or simply fighting for better doesn't seem to click for some. Many have told me they are simply happy to have a cheap option, other than Greyhound, since they...

    Booking online on Amtrak website

    Now I wish I would have taken a screenshot showing I could have taken the CONO from CLT to NYP. Lol.

    Rail stations at Airports

    I’m a resident of Charlotte. There has been a lot of discussion about getting our light rail to make a stop as close to the front door of the airport as possible. In an ideal world we would like something like PHL has. Walk right out of baggage claim, and straight onto SEPTA. Most likely not...

    Comparison of Amtrak vs. other transport mode

    I've heard "never again" on just about every mode of transportation there is. We are those types that always plan for worse case scenarios. So when things happen, we are much more adept at taking things with a grain of salt. The one time I truly felt bad for a fellow passenger, was during a...

    Effect of rising gas prices on Amtrak ridership in summer of '22

    I saw $4.18 for regular here in Charlotte yesterday. Regardless of fuel prices, we are riding the train anyway for most of our vacation travels.

    As far as notification if you won goes. I've seen it be as close to two hours before departure.

    Amtrak dining and cafe service

    I’m not sure either. It’s gotta be for the Crescent, but why not base them out of NOL or NYP? It’s a bit of a stretch, but maybe they are trying to pick up some fresh out of culinary school chefs from Johnson & Wales here in Charlotte.

    Lake Shore Limited - running Superliners now?

    Amtrak dining and cafe service

    Crescent yes, but middle earth will probably freeze over before the Carolinian ever sees traditional dining.
