    Amtrak long term service cancellations and restorations (2022-2023H1)

    The majority of the bad weather that would affect my trip (mainly 49) would be on Monday, so I'm assuming that they are only canceling one or two days in advance and haven't gotten to Monday/Tuesday yet. I certainly hope it stays intact but I'm not counting on it. Those are all correct. I added...

    Amtrak long term service cancellations and restorations (2022-2023H1)

    Looks like Amtrak has already canceled four routes in both directions over the weekend in anticipation of the winter storm. So far it looks like these trains are canceled: 21 & 22 (Texas Eagle): Canceled for 1/15 58 & 59 (City of New Orleans): Canceled for 1/15 29 (Capitol Limited): Canceled...

    Reserving a Silver Meteor Viewliner II Sleeper

    I did upgrade because it looks like there were only 2 left in the reduced bucket and one had already sold today. I’m actually on 21 right now to LAX (night 4 of a 5 night cross-county journey) so I was lucky to get a short hold time in a good service area. I will call back after I get back to...

    Reserving a Silver Meteor Viewliner II Sleeper

    I go to upgrade my other 98 reservation to a roomette over the phone tonight since the price dropped. Was quoted $394 difference and then I ask for 9810/12 for VLII and somehow the price goes up to $496. Apparently the 9811 rooms are selling for $100 less according to the agent I spoke with...

    Effect of early January 2022 Virginia Snowstorm on Amtrak

    I was worried about my 98 trip that left yesterday since there were some cancelations, but I just got into DC with no problems, 38 minutes early even. I got to see this as well! 29 to Chicago is next in about 9 hours.

    Effect of early January 2022 Virginia Snowstorm on Amtrak

    Would they have enough trainsets in Miami to run 92/98 on Friday? I may be wrong but I thought the 91 and 97 trains that left NYP today will be used for 92/98 on Friday? (I'm hoping so... don't want my 98 on Friday to be canceled)

    Looks like 97 for Friday has already been canceled. I booked flights just in case they do the same with 98.

    I see most of the Silver Service was canceled entirely today. I have a trip on 98 on Friday to WAS. Hoping it doesn't get canceled.

    Updated/Modified ticket email

    I received ticket modifications for 3 out of my 4 trips in January. The only change I found was that the arrival time was 20 minutes or so later than what was originally scheduled. The train numbers are 98, 49, and 50. Ever since receiving the first email I am not able to access my reservation...

    Silver Service schedule changes

    It looks like it's not just the Silver Service. I got an email with a new ticket for one of my 98 trips, a new ticket for 49 arriving into Chicago 22 minutes later, and a new ticket for 50 arriving into NYP 25 minutes later. These are all in January. I have a second trip on 98 connecting to 29...

    Reserving a Silver Meteor Viewliner II Sleeper

    I called back tonight and spoke to a different agent who at first wasn't sure and said it was going to cost extra, but put me on hold and spoke to the help desk. He came back and said he was able to switch me to 9810 at no additional charge! (and confirmed that 9810 is a Viewliner II as of right...

    Reserving a Silver Meteor Viewliner II Sleeper

    Oh, I thought they meant one of their Select tiers since they mentioned a dedicated phone number. I am a base member, yes.

    Reserving a Silver Meteor Viewliner II Sleeper

    That's what I have seen as well. I was hoping to get the 12 car again when I switched but I was unlucky. The agent knew what I was trying to do but said she wasn't able to look at availability in different cars. I'm not an AGR member yet, so I will try and call back at a different time and see...

    Reserving a Silver Meteor Viewliner II Sleeper

    Just now discovering this thread as I just booked a trip on the Silver Meteor for January. I was originally in car 9812 but had to move it forward by a week and am now in 9811. I called Amtrak to see if 9812 will be available or if there is only 2 sleepers, and the agent said that no matter what...
