You will be re-booked into coach for the ALB>BOS segment. There has been a 1/2 café-1/2 business car in the consist for the displaced sleeper passengers. You will be offered a selection from the café. In the past, when the sleeper ran through, you could choose between two different meal...

A bit of good news-according to Bill's sister Peggy, for the moment he will remain at the rehab facility. I gather it will be a day by day decision. Thank you all. Mike

An update on our friend Bill: Bill's health is not improving as well as we all wished it would. He is being transferred from the rehab facility to a nursing home. Please continue to keep Bill in your thoughts and prayers. Mike

Riding a PCC is a blast! The Mattapan line connects to the Red Line Ashmont Station. I'll just say to be aware of your surroundings, and visit during the day.

Yes, Mansfield is in the 150 mph zone. You'll be able to enjoy riding at that speed after you leave Providence. Enjoy! Mike

If your departure and final arrival station both offer checked baggage, then, yes, you may check it through to your destination. Your luggage will be waiting for you when you arrive. I believe you have three days before a fee is charged for storage; your two day layover in NOL should not be a...

I've been downgraded to coach or bus more times than I want to remember. I have had more success with a refund when I spoke with Customer Relations about transfer to coach/bus. Regarding the coach vs business class; I have been fortunate to have BC seating available to me during this track and...

I would suggest looking up travel from BAN (Bangor) to BON (Boston North Station), then BOS (Boston South Station) to CVS (Charlottesville). Sometimes the gap between BON and BOS is not configured in the reservation computer. It looks like there are three connecting buses to the Downeaster at...

MODERATOR NOTE: there were numerous threads regarding upgrade, companion and lounge coupons with posts by members who have coupons available, who are seeking coupons and who have questions. We have merged most of the threads into this one, which was re-titled and pinned. Please note we...

In the past, I have asked to change to an earlier or later Regional train to/from BOS. It has never been a problem. I would expect the same with your request.

Possibly to avoid customers trying to return merchandise purchased online, or coming to the store to lodge a complaint with the online store.....

They're gone........

I have two companion coupons that I will not need. They expire 2/29/16. One per person; the first two folks get them. As they are e-coupons, I'll PM the numbers to the lucky members :) Mike

Unless the café/BC class has been pulled from the consist, the sleeper passengers are directed to the BC section of the café car. Yes, your ticket says coach, but you will have the comfortable 1 and 2 seating of Business Class. Enjoy your trip! Mike

As you are asking for an itinerary completely within Canada, you must buy your ticket from VIA Rail. If you cross the border, Amtrak is able to provide a ticket. Mike

^^^ What they said.

Then I must be #3! I applied this morning, and I am already a BoA customer. Mike

Thanks for a good laugh, Jim! Mike

The 4920 is part of train 49 for the time being. In other words, it along with the 4911 and 4912 cars, travels NYP to CHI. When the track work, etc., is complete, the '20 car will be back on 449 from BOS to CHI. For your trip in September the train from BOS to ALB will be coaches, and...

Trains 448 and 449 have had 1/2 business-1/2 café cars , with 2 and 1 seating, available for displaced sleeper passengers. Whether that will continue into September is anyone's guess.... The trip across Massachusetts is enjoyable, but so is the trip along the Hudson. The fare from NYP may be...
