We're about a year after this latest update... has there been anything new at all in this regard?

In that case, I guess I got unlucky and ended up with the VI. But who knows how things will be in a few months, so I'm just going to keep it. Thanks!

Does the same rule about numbers apply to train 98? I have a trip in 9811 and was wondering if that will also be the VII.

Thank you for the information! That is actually kind of shocking that the connection has to be 90 minutes... Never knew that! In Germany, they hold connections of 15 minutes... alas, it's a different world! Thanks again. I will call or visit the station.

Hello I am trying to put together a trip from Lancaster to Boston. I am running into an issue, however, that not all connections are displaying. For example, the first train I can take according to amtrak.com is at 1:40PM that gets me into Boston just before midnight. If you search manually...

If this is how you truly think, this is an absolute joke. 20 hours of free lodging and food? Is this satire? This is a delay of 20 hours while the train trip was supposed to take no longer than 18. And due to the uniqueness of the auto train, it is not possible for the people to leave and seek...

This makes me feel fortunate to have been on the southbound on 12/26 with only a 10 hour delay :eek:

FWIW, I just wanted to let you guys know that I am still on the vacation and havent contacted Amtrak yet, but they reached out by themselves and provided a voucher for $150 each, so totalling $300. Not great, not terrible, I'll take it for what it is and run with it. :) Thank you for the advice!

Should I call AGR dedicated line or should I be calling the regular relations line?

Unfortunately, this is a trip paid fully by points. In that case, what can I expect? I'm ok it they would throw me some points that I spent on the trip. Just not sure what's really codified.

I am currently on the auto train 53 that struck a vehicle. We were told this morning we'd be in Florence at 10am and Sanford at 7pm, but we are in Florence at 11:30am. What are the compensation rules for Amtrak in these instances? I understand it's not their fault that somebody's vehicle was...

I did not get it. I opened my fee card in October, so I am very fresh.

76. It is nearly 10pm at night and the sky is still relatively bright! 77. I enjoy travelling along the roads like this. 78. This one being empty, although often we can travel faster than cars. 79. It has gotten considerably darker now. 80. Crossing the Oder river in Szczecin by night...

71. We enjoy nice beach town and some beach time, as the weather is 82 degrees (28 celsius) and the water is bearable, even though it is a more northern sea. On the way back, we cross the border by foot 72. Before 2007, this all used to be blocked off by fences and barbed wire, since then it...

66. We enjoy a nice aperitif on the dock. 67. With a pretty view on the Baltic. 68. The Germans fly the Polish flag there as well 69. Later on, we enjoy a Hering... 70. And some nice German beer.

61. At Heringsdorf, the train will turn around, but we depart here. 62. A pretty and historical train station in Heringsdorf. 63. The town here is one of the historical kingdom towns - one of the most prestigious resort towns in the 18th and 19th century for the royalty. 64. Very pretty...

56. The interesting thing is that inside there is a 2+3 seat configuration, not common in Poland, but perhaps more so in Germany. 57. The seats are comfortable enough. 58. The train ride will only be about 10 minutes, to Heringsdorf. After not even a mile, we stop at the border. Since we are...

51. We are still in Poland, but only a couple hundred yards away from the border. The German railway extended the tracks and installed its own train station. Only the regional UBB trains call here. 52. It's easy to spot that this is a German station - by the German signs, even if they are in...

46. Our train visible on a curve. 47. As we arrive, lots of people detrain with their bikes for the Baltic summer adventure. In the background we see a regional train of the West Pomerania region. 48. Świnoujście station is clearly undergoing construction. 49. As we are on islands, we have...

41. Open windows make it possible to take nice pictures. Warsaw West Station building is a main office building for PKP Intercity and other PKP group companies. 42. As we pass many stations, they are mostly modernized. A big change has definitely taken place on the Polish railroad in the past...
