When have any revenue CZs ever run with a second Lounge?

Indeed. This guy really represented the concentrated essence of all American driving stupidity. I almost applaud him for pulling off a stunt so unimaginably idiotic.

I highly recommend looking at fares that are around five months out. It's very common for them to drop to low bucket at that point.

Definitely take the Zephyr. It is a much, Much, MUCH prettier train than the Chief, and will likely be significantly cheaper (the Chief is a bit more expensive end-to-end, and you have to pay for the extra 12 hours on the Starlight). Also note that there's quite a bit of of rough trackage on the...

Any idea at this point as to what the fire actually was?

Seattle to Emeryville is the longest possible Starlight segment they could do, and it's only a little over 22 hours. It's not just a matter of TrainJammers enjoying a longer ride; they are actually developing a video game onboard, and I don't think that's doable in that time. EDIT: Whoops...

How do they calculate the value of the Amtrak portion vs the VIA portion?

There's also Gisborne Airport in New Zealand, which still has an active rail crossing.

As you said, there are two types of vouchers. Transportation Vouchers start with a T, are issued as compensation by Customer Relations, and can only be used once, while E-Vouchers start with a V, are issued due to cancelled or modified tickets, and can be used repeatedly until the value is used...

There aren't any real "best times" when it comes to pricing. However for optimal on time performance and views, I would recommend going in the summer. I would also recommend Portland over Seattle, since you get the Sightseer Lounge west of Spokane, offering phenomenal views of the Columbia...

“Just keeps cosmetically renovating”? I’m pretty sure they’ve only renovated the Superliner once, and it was just the SL-Is, so that statement seems a bit harsh.  And as far as I can tell, there is no indication that the cars are falling apart like that. There are plenty of issues with the...

Yeah, the Zephyr gets serviced and refueled in Denver, as well as Salt Lake City (and maybe Omaha?). So I don’t think they would want to deal with a 26 car train there.

It's back!  Double your points March 18 - May 18 Typical terms and conditions, and you have to register for it here. Enjoy! :)

That's nothing. Tag me when there's a pedestrian concourse over an active runway. :lol:

Wow. Are they okay? Did they get their luggage out in time?

The accommodation charge for a low bucket Roomette from LAX to NOL is $263. That means a minimum $263 to upgrade if the OP has a low bucket Value seat, but it could be much less than that or much more than that depending on their current fare type and bucket. 1@Rossmortimore[/USER] Would you be...

Which one?

You mean that in a bad way?

Also, what "cab car that has a HEP generator" is he referring to?

You can not choose a specific seat before. That said, you will have chosen either an upper or lower level seat when you booked, so make sure you went with the former. When you board, the crew will definitely assign you to a specific car, but may or may not assign a specific seat (if they don't...
