Amtrak Seattle Bellingham recent customer reviews

The bus left an hour late. We were told ten minutes before the departure time that it was going to leave 10 minutes late, then no one came back to give updates. Then, the replacement bus was all electric which was good but there wasn't enough room underneath so bags, walkers, bikes, etc. were cramped on the inside. One compliment goes to the driver who was polite, helpful, and apologetic about the situation.
