Dollar in Winslow is 3.7 miles from station. Call.

I believe you have to speak with an AGR representative. If you book online, the names on the ticket and the AGR account must match. (I think.) I know that if a voucher is redeemed online, the name has to be same on ticket and voucher. Sorry admins, I know this is not a credit card question...

My younger son (28 y.o.) went with my wife and myself last summer on a trip to visit the Nevada Northern Railway (yes, we saw Dirt, and our deboarding was in Winnemucca). On most of the legs, we shared a bedroom, as my wife and I are slender and sleep together on the lower. On one leg, we were...

Sunset Schedule update effective 1/23/23. In order to reduce congestion in the Tucson, AZ area the Sunset's schedule has been re-timed between Tucson and El Paso. Fueling and daily inspection will now take place at UP's Santa Teresa Fueling Facility for both Trains 1 and 2 just west of El Paso...

The Smithsonian's Mighty Trains series has an hour episode on the Hanoi to Saigon train, but it's on Paramount+ streaming service. The Man in Seat 61, however, has posted this on YouTube:

From this past June..

I'm not certain how the transitions from car to car can be made ADA compliant for wheel chairs. Those joining plates (or whatever they are called) continually move up and down, even in single-level cars. Oh wait, the freight railroads are eager to smooth out the track to accomodate...

My wife and I typically ride western trains, so our experience is mostly in Superliner equipment. Imagine our surprise when we boarded the Vermonter in White River Junction and found the seats so close together. Horizon cars, I assume...

@Bob Dylan isn't mixed up. It's simply a side effect of living in Austin! (And I should know...)

And here's a way to let management know that she did a good job: https://www.amtrak.com/email-us

And (not that WE care) the bridge construction project will be set back many weeks, as that beam was custom made, and the replacement will take time to cure. Dumb truck driver.

And yet, when the airlines cancel: https://mydakotan.com/2022/12/stranded-travelers-opt-for-amtrak/

We just just got more than two weeks notice on a sleeper change for us on a trip--July 9! CZ eastbound from EMY. Wondering if the car we were booked in is being refurbished during peak travel time, or being loaned to another route?

Item update 12/14/22. Still quoting politicians, and not Amtrak: https://montrealgazette.com/news/local-news/amtrak-expected-to-resume-montreal-new-york-city-train-in-the-spring

Adirondack returning...some time in 2023. https://montrealgazette.com/news/local-news/amtrak-expected-to-resume-montreal-new-york-city-train-in-the-spring

And this wouldn't be good for us in Austin, either.

It was my understanding that points are sent from the bank to Amtrak the date the statement closes, i.e. monthly. I believe that BoA was sending points daily the final month of their stewardship of the accounts, but someone can surely correct me.

Actually, there is a depot in Gainesville FL, but it's restaurants and there's no track, just a bicycle trail. 199 SE Depot Ave https://maps.app.goo.gl/hiL3mi1xyQBfQUZt9

Our tickets were a group tour, or I would have upgraded to Business.

We bring the same extension cord with three prong pairs as @TinCan782 suggests. The only thing we plug in to it are phone chargers, which don't have ground prongs. I wouldn't waste space in my bag to bring a surge protector. If you are in the Family Bedroom (Superliner), 6 foot might be a bit...
