You should spend a day or two in San Diego. It is wonderful. Best Western Island Palms on Shelter Island with a harbor view. :)

Does anyone know if Amtrak treats a gift card used towards the purchase of train tickets as cash? Will a one hundred dollar card used for tickets equal 200 TQP points?

This year is our fifth 10 or 11 train trip. In past years the phone app would show all 10 trips in order by date. Now when I look at "My Trips" it lists the Downeaster and LSL only. If I go to search for trips I can see what is on each of the reservations. However when I go back to my trips none...

Not sure how Amtrak's pricing works or the logic of it. We bought our September 2025 tickets in early November. Two of our trains were the CZ from Chicago to Grand Junction for 1012.00 in a roomette using a companion coupon and the SWC from LA to Chicago in a roomette for 797.00, also using a...

We stay at the Walker Mansion on St Charles. Nice big room with two queen size beds and a nice bathroom. You have access to a big kitchen and dining area. We were there for 3 nights in September and it was 600.00.

We did five LD trains earlier this month (including LSL from BOS to CHI) and coffee was available in all the sleepers.

Are guaranteed connections only between LD trains? For instance the LSL is schecduled to arrive at BOS by 2032. The last Downeaster to Portland is scheduled to leave BON at 2325. Is this a guaranteed connection?

So, for this September's trip we had two reservations. One for the trains we paid for with points and one for the trains we put on our AGR card. Am I correct that since you can combine points and cash we should expect all trains to be on one reservation for our next trip?

Ours were all good. We complimented the car attendant and said everyone needs to use the convection oven.

On the Crescent now. Nice to eat in the diner instead of spending the whole time in our roomette We were told this is the first day serving the above menu

I missed the point before the 2. 74 year old eyes. :)

We had no issues with the elevators and bridge last year. If you go that way it is way less than 2 miles. Just go around the right side of the building.

Our SCA in the base sleeper lives in Chicago

We are on the Lake Shore due in to CUS around 1000. On today's EB. I still have a QR code.

We made the Downeaster to Lake Shore connection. As probably all of you know there's no baggage car on the Boston train. A few days ago I checked on sleeper availability on the website. It showed no rooms available. We figured we would be sleeping with our 2 suitcases, 2 backpacks and 2 camera...

It said on a single train segment ot leg I was concerned with the definition of segment or leg We have 2 48 hour coupons so hopefully they have 2 empty first class seats on a Friday

We are leaving tomorrow morning on our yearly trip. We have tickets for the Acela from Washington to Boston on 9/20. We have 2 48 hour upgrade coupons. In the past we have upgraded both seats to first class. I was looking at the upgrade rules on the web site and it says the coupon can be used...

We leave next Sunday on a three week trip. I have called three times to have reservations modified, twice for credits on our card and once for points added back into our account. The first two times went smoothly. The third time when I called the AGR Select Plus number I got a young fellow. I...

I am not sure but if you have any leeway in your dates, I don't belive that the Lake Shore is cancelled for conseutive days. I think it is 2 or 3 days here and 2 or 3 there?

Thanks, made it by two days, I hope! Supposed to get on the Empire Builder on Monday the 2nd. We have a 5 hour window. I don't know if the bus would endanger that or not.
