Amtrak User Reviews
Amtrak is praised for its friendly and competent staff, as well as comfortable seating. However, some users have noted that the train cars can be quite cold. Additionally, there are mentions of delays affecting meal availability and difficulties in locating trains before departure.
Drivers were amazing (1 in training I believe) No curbs, no heavy breaking, friendly. The only thing I noticed negative was; no charging ports at seats or wifi. In all fairness; I only expected those things because of the side of the bus saying it was available. I don't know if those amenities were Included with booking. (Why I didn't deduct stars)
Stephanie S.
So long trip, almost 22 hours trip and not good food to buy. They should have at least a TV on board like planes does ,kind of uncomfortable journey. Amtrak Needs to upgrade services we are in the modern life.

Raissa I.
For being my first time everyone was very helpful when I asked questions of what to do or where to go.
Susie P.
I would take the train again. It was easy and very comfortable. The food options were somewhat limited because they had not received all the veggie snack packages they had expected.
Marta H.
I accidentally bought my ticket for the following week. I didn't notice until the train arrived. The conductor let me board anyway instead of making me go back home. The ride was quick, comfortable and quiet. Thanks
