Great staff at station and on board. However badly understated the duration of the journey from DC to NYC, and no drinks were offered on board.

Nothing fancy, but I appreciate a good driver. The length of the trip is not correct on line. We were also told on the bus that it would be between 3.5 and 4 hours to NYC. It took 5.5 hours. Impossible, especially when we stopped once to change drivers and again for a 20 min break.

Bus is good. Driver needs to work on his customer services. He cannot talk to passengers as they're children.

Drivers were quite abrupt and prescriptive. I felt a bit like I was back on a field trip in elementary school (I am over 50 years old) - but they have a challenging job. The information person at Union station at washington was awesome and related well to passengers. The water and charging facilities were great. The bus was around 1 hour late into the destination with no explanation or apology
