The bus driver was extremely nice and helped me shorten my trip. Customs went more quickly than a trip across in a car two days earlier. It was a very relaxing way to ride between Bellingham and Vancouver.

Bus arrived late for 45 minutes. It was full loaded and the toilet stinks, very smelly especially I had a rear seat near it.

It would have been nice to know what stops were available for planning purposes and retrieval arrangements. I was only given one stop as a choice. The driver was efficient and knowledgeable and accommodating.

On Time,courteous staff, customs an issue. Company in our wagon difficult as there were many young kids, out of your control

This was the first time I have travelled in Amtrak. I was very excited to go in the train. When I got to the station the station master was excellent and very knowledgeable and friendly but it all changed with the train staff as they are unfriendly as they can be. The train seats are dirty and old eve though I was sitting in the business class. There is no reservation of the seats. I felt that the employees either do not get paid well or they are just unhappy with their job.
