Thank you for the fact check. This is what I HATE about the Internet. People make up stuff, post it, it spreads uncontrollably and people take it as gospel. THIS is a true example of FAKE NEWS. Great to have YOU as a credible resource!

To each, their own. :)

They don't deserve it because of one negative experience?

Not that I had intentions of buying anything but I went window shopping and the site was blocked by my firewall.

Personally, I like arriving early if the $200 isn't that big of a hit to your budget. However, you have to weight that to how soon you can check in to your hotel, and what you do with your time until then. There certainly is plenty to do in LA! I just learned that a Marriott I booked with was...

And Kansas City, Mo. voters decisively rejected a huge funding bill this spring, months after the Chiefs won another Super Bowl. Not taking the hint, Kansas City, Kan. politicians are now sniffing around with proposals to lure the Chiefs and Royals across the state line which would leave a...

It is there. If you are using the browser you have to select when starting your trip search. If you have an AGR profile, it can be saved in there but is only applied automatically in the app. Again, you have to choose it every time when using the browser version.

Which makes this a misnomer.

Isn't this what Precision Scheduled Railroading is all about? If so, the freight railroads are certainly executing it very poorly.

Not sure where this should go, but placing here given the article takes a broad view of the impact on freight railroads. https://finance.yahoo.com/news/amtrak-time-performance-woes-mirror-145358681.html

How unfortunate. I used this last fall on my Miami visit. Very convenient service.

When I made my reservation online last week with my AGR card, no issues. Just received a text from FNBO to confirm the transaction. Easy peasy.

Will be in Philadelphia Wednesday and looking to ride this line for the first time, staying in the Convention Center area. Any suggestions as you get to/from the line or stretches to avoid? Looks like BSL and MFL both access it. And the 10 trolley line.

I agree, Amtrak's customer relations issues cannot be pinned on unions. Airlines are unionized and while you have the occasional rogue employee, most are well trained and courteous.

I did this after making a reservation online and learned that VIA no longer has senior discounts, even though that option still exists. The agent advised me the AAA discount works and it did save me some money.

No, I think that was a dream that was born and died many years ago.

Just for kicks watched the Pennsylvanian twice today on the Horseshoe Curve rail cam and noted that it now has seven cars. Not sure how long this has been the case but it had been six for several years. Perhaps it got a bump given the restricted service on the Keystone Corridor during this...

There was a similar one earlier this spring on NE Corridor travel that offered 25% off a future NE Regional or Acela Business Class trip. So this is probably legit, just poorly executed. Wish I would get this one!

Keystone Corridor improvement project reaches halfway point. Would still like to know when the Pennsylvanian line work will begin. https://www.masstransitmag.com/rail/maintenance/news/55129080/pa-amtrak-starts-phase-4-of-track-renewal-project-in-central-pa

Much more detailed story about the takeover. Should be a gift article. Even though this one hurdle is cleared, it will remain in courts for years. https://wapo.st/3Wn0zWW
