Amtrak Winter Haven Fort Lauderdale recent customer reviews

There's no excuse for a 3-hour lateness. Also, only 2 cars had functioning A/C for the majority of the trip. America also brags about how it's a global superpower, yet it's public transit infrastructure is subpar in comparison to other developed nations. Something has to change for the better.
