    Why is transitdocs showing 29 (29) headed towards Chicago 17:20 late? Is that 30 (29) headed back to CHI?

    Can't book with new Program

    I'm going back to the well of knowledge again. I am trying to use the multi city option to book an AGR trip and cannot determine how to pay with points? The payment section only shows credit card or voucher payment. I am working on a RVR-NYP-CHI-WAS-RVR trip. The routing using the round trip...

    The Cardinal is shown 8:28 min late and has been sitting West of Cincy for quite some time. Anybody know what happened?

    Cardinal #50 - Superliner Sleeper - Nov 18, 2017.

    I also had Janice, although she told me to call her "Momma J" so I'm glad to know her first name. The Amtrak belt buckle clued me in. She was great and caring. Glad to see she is fighting for her pax to get the transdorm.

    Viewliner II Part 2: Dining Car Production, Delivery, Speculation

    Rocco has the Hens pointed in the right direction. As a grad of another CAA school I can say I'm glad that UD will be back in the mix soon. I've enjoyed many great JMU-UD games over the years, especially during the Flacco era. Ask Ryan if the numbers 26 and 16 ring any bells :o

    Traveling cross country next week: Cardinal & SWC-what's new?

    I was in the sleeper so I did not use the seats but given the 2-1 configuration they should be wider.......but the 2 seat pair in BC has an armrest that would prevent using both seats if one was not occupied.

    Traveling cross country next week: Cardinal & SWC-what's new?

    I rode the Card back in February. The Business Class is the 2-1 faux leather. The SCA for the sleeper (at that time only one) handled both cars. The unstaffed cafe area is open to BC pax and there was coffee after 6:30 AM and also some snack and full sized soda out for the taking. I did not...

    Questions as I wander west (Cardinal and Empire Builder)

    I was on the Card this past February and the SCA told the sleeper passengers that dinner started at 6:00 and to go whenever we wanted, same with breakfast and lunch. I too had a table to myself with about 6 or 7 others eating for each meal. Coffee was started at 6:30 in both the sleeper and...

    Which side of the Cardinal am I on?

    If you have a SCA that goes by "Momma J" then you will be well taken care of. She was always walking the car, visible and if you kept your door open would pop her head in to see if you needed anything. If I remember correctly, she said she was a 37 year Amtrak veteran.

    Which side of the Cardinal am I on?

    I was on the westbound Card in Feb. this year in Bedroom B. The sleeper was on the back, the vestibule was in front and the bedroom was on the wrong side for the gorge. As roomette #1 is on the same side as the bedrooms it looks to me like your roomette would be opposite the gorge. There is...

    Discontinued Ammenities

    I had Carlos a few months back on the CL. He could work at any five star hotel. A true Gentleman who cares about "his" customers.
