Shows free to park at Wickford Junction here: https://mbta.com/stops/Wickford%20Junction I would also keep in mind that Wickford Junction is 1.5 hours via mbta vs 1 hour on Amtrak to Kingston.

Seems like this alert is a little premature and lacking specifics in timeframe. The 3rd Noreaster in 2 weeks isn't scheduled to impact the Boston area until midnight tonight. Seeing lots of on-time trains currently operating between NYP-BOS. I would guess this alert is intended for the morning...

Does anyone ever get acknowledged by conductors or OBS while riding the rails for having top tier status?

Im guessing reusing the seats with new cushions represents substantial cost savings.

Interested to see how this effects the Club Cafe seats which are quite different than the Amfleet I Coach and Business class seats. They have leg rests in addition to the footrests and the 2-1 layout.

Ah, thats a tough spot. If you were delayed and willing to walk to the North Temple Bridge station (0.8 mile) and the first green line train to the airport is at 6:06am.

If you're delayed TRAX (light rail) starts around 5:45am on weekdays and 6:30am on weekends, I'd give that a try, the Blue line is right outside the Amshack (Salt Lake Central) North to Arena, and switch to the Green Line which will take you to the Airport and its only $2.50...

The Downeaster is promoting viewing the partial eclipse in the Ocean View Dome Car on train 683. https://www.facebook.com/AmtrakDowneaster/posts/10155572398647145. Lots of tickets still available.

It will be on the Downeaster from 8/19-9/24. and then likely mosey over to the Adirondack after that. http://www.amtrakdowneaster.com/domecar

If anyone has any lounge passes or upgrade coupons expiring 8/4 or later, i'd be happy to put them to a good use ;) .

Downeaster 683 (weekdays) leaves BON at 1:05 pm and 693 (weekends) leaves BON at 12:10pm. This should be plenty of time to connect from BBY. It looks like the 11:35am time you got is from the 681 arrival time in Portland.

We used Zipcar across the pedestrian bridge on the other side of the station. The price is a bit higher but it includes gas and the convenience to get in and go, no waiting in line and no paperwork, it is worth it to me.

Freeport, Maine (FRE)- Brunswick, Maine (BRK) $4 Saver. 15mins. Wells, Maine (WEM) - Saco, Maine (SAO) $4 Saver. 17 mins.

Happy to have a thru roomette for our Boston-Chicago trip at the end of December. Now if only we could get the Portland-style catered box lunches like they have on the Empire Builder. Though I suppose with the departure time if we're not happy with the minimal menu...

A new thruway connection to Rikers Island?

Eastbound Boston sleeper slated to return on 10/24 and westbound sleeper starts on 10/26 according to ARROW. What's also interesting is starting on those dates there are Business class options now available. I'm guessing a Club Cafe on 448/449?

Also missing the revised Dinerless LSL menu.

I have a 12 hour upgrade coupon that expires on 10/10 (though 10/10 is a blackout date so best to travel by 10/9). Wondering if anyone would be willing to trade a club Acela pass for it that expires 11/7 or later? Thanks.

LSL to the Ethan Allen would work for getting you to Vermont with no overnight in NY or Mass.

Just finishing up a trip DHM-CVS and back with multiple segments in business class we were offered the following: Downeaster 680: At seat drink service (add your own cream and sugar) and a crisp copy of the Portland Press Herald Acela: nada (obviously) Crescent 20: We were in a roomette but...
