Amtrak Seattle Washington recent customer reviews
I got a ticket from Seattle, WA, to Washington, DC, on Aug. 4, 2025. The trip will take 65 hours and 10 minutes to travel. It took us more than 80 hours to get to Washington, DC. It has been a terrible experience. Not only that, but it started delayed in Chicago. Rerouted to New York and to Washington, DC, it's exhausting to spend on the road without shower for 3 days
