3 intersections have been blocked for over an hour now. No word yet what's going on.

I remember it being a beautiful station my parents would let us go see when we were in town. It's sad to see how it's been neglected by the city.

We've had issues in downtown Indy before with young but adult men approaching my daughter a few years ago. She's not felt so safe since so I'm more leary with the area in general.

We live 50 miles south of Indy, not many choices with reasonable driving and arrival times for a 1 day trip. Still on the fence making the trip considering the state of Indy at all because it would be me (barely 100LB female) and my 15yo daughter.

Sorry gotta edit Chicago not Cincinnati. It departs Ind at 6am, with a 10am arrival. Then departs Chicago the same day at 5:55pm.

We're considering a round trip Ind-Chi same day just to get an idea of train travel in general. If they cancel Cardinal leaving Chicago, do they provide alternate transportation or are we stuck finding a rental?

I'm seeing July 2024 dates being priced the same as dates for this month on our route. Completely insane

Yes they are cleaner, they tested renewable diesel impacts on the Tier 4 in 2022 as well. Took a minute to find the public release. https://www.cummins.com/news/releases/2022/09/20/cummins-qsk95-engine-proven-fully-compatible-renewable-diesel

Being new to Amtrak, something I've ran into looking for random places we would like to go: because we're stuck with Cardinal at either Indy or Cincinnati, routes don't come up as easily or "don't exist" because of arrival time for a transfer. I've been able to cobble together some routes by...

I just bought today and policy is showed as 120-15 days refundable in original payment with 25% fee, but $250 is the maximum fee as well. 14-departure is voucher with 25%

Assuming pricing issues? One way for one person is now showing $409, yesterday 3 people was $528

I found a video from 11 months ago posted on a Cardinal trip, Viewliner II. Looks like there is a divider that can be opened.

I thought it did since it's listed as an optional for booking.

It's straightened out to 5000 A & B and roomette 5000 2. He was quite confusing because he said Amtrak only offers roomettes, bedrooms, and family rooms, which made no sense because they aren't listed as an option for Cardinal, but a suite is. They didn't charge more to get moved.

Alright straightened out now. Rooms all in same car, bedrooms A&B and roomette 2. Guess we don't ask for the bedroom suites when we call then?

Currently trying to book a bedroom suite and a roomette for Cardinal (5 of us). Agent mistakenly booked only a single bedroom and roomette. He insists Amtral does not offer suites. Trying to get it corrected, but as of now, we have 5000 B and 5009 room 4- are these different cars? He said now...

Silly question, we're planning to leave from Cincinnati with scheduled 3:37am departure. Amtrak lists station hours as 12am-4am. If the train is behind schedule, do they leave it open longer? Would really hate to have no restroom access if needed.

Thanks, that really makes a difference for the CC being worth it. It would put me close to the Select status, then adding in my planned spending for the extra 1000 TQP increments would get me to the Plus.

With AGR and TQP points, if I book multiple roomettes (traveling with 5 adults) do I get the accommodation portion of points for all the rooms or just one I'm in? Then CC or Status companion passes 2 questions to decide if worth applying: do they expire the same year they are issued or a year...

Alexandria station seems like it may be easier to navigate vs DC especially with my dad. He uses a cane or walker depending on the day normally. Either stop is quoting the same price, so just comes down to what will make sense with him. We'll have an EVC delivered to the hotel since we can't get...
