Amtrak might have taken CSX JAX <> Lakeland EX SAL and backed to Kissimmee. Oh wait, beyond managements expert visions.
Read RebelRider’s post two posts above yours. #97 is one of the Meteors.Just wondering will Ian affect #97 as it is scheduled to begin operating soon?
Reschedule???This evening, I received the dreaded email from Amtrak regarding 98 on 10/3:
92 is running from JAX with a bus bridge from ORL to JAX. I changed my reservation just now. Thanks @lordsigma for alerting me to that possibilityReschedule???
That's not too far for a Bustitution!92 is running from JAX with a bus bridge from ORL to JAX. I changed my reservation just now. Thanks @lordsigma for alerting me to that possibility
That is almost beyond what CSX would agree to setup on a good sunny day, much less in the middle of a flood crisis and a staff crisis.Amtrak might have taken CSX JAX <> Lakeland EX SAL and backed to Kissimmee. Oh wait, beyond managements expert visions.
I did not get a chance to ask that question because I switched to 92 from 98 and it was less money. However, if I was not able to switch to bus/92, I would have rescheduled and all the fares were more money and more points (I paid one way and did points the other-during the sale).Has anyone had any luck rescheduling a caceled train more than once without additional fees? I was due to take train 97 on Oct 4 but of course that route was canceled yesterday. I called to reschedule on train 91 with a bus connection from Jacksonville to Orlando, but now I'm thinking about traveling on another date.
My return trip on 10/8 was canceled as well. I see the option for the bus bridge on 10/6 online, but no bus option on 10/8.I just received a robo call and email stating that my return trip on Silver Star 91 on 10/6 has been canceled. I am on hold now to see if the bus bridge to Orlando from JAX will work on the way home.
It may be. Although the bus bridge was not "offered" without asking, I was able to book 91 on 10/6 from NYP to ORL (with JAX-ORL by bus) - with a points refund.My return trip on 10/8 was canceled as well. I see the option for the bus bridge on 10/6 online, but no bus option on 10/8.

Amtrak really needs to get someone who knows the English language to proofread these things. Passengers traveling to JAX on 91 won't need a bus bridge. Passengers traveling on 92 will be departing from TPA & ORL, not traveling to them. And a period between "Florida" and "Service" would be helpful.
- Silver Star 91 — scheduled to depart New York on Sunday, October 2, will terminate in Jacksonville, Florida, on Monday, October 3rd, 2022 Bus transportation will be provided for passengers traveling to Jacksonville, Orlando, and Tampa.
- Silver Star 92 — scheduled to depart Miami on Monday, October 3rd, 2022 will originate in Jacksonville, Florida Service from Miami to Jacksonville, Florida, is canceled. Bus transportation will be provided for passengers traveling to Tampa, Orlando, and Jacksonville.
I noticed those mistakes, too. Editing is a lost art. (Now to review this post before I hit “Post Reply” )Amtrak really needs to get someone who knows the English language to proofread these things.
