I enjoyed my Amtrak trip. I didn't have my ticket printed, only on my phone. The fella at the ticket counter was very helpful in the Greensboro Depot and printed off my ticket for me. The train was easy boarding, not too crowded, very clean and the most relaxing ride. I deboarded in Charlotte. Amtrak is the way to go, no traffic on the highways and leaving the driving up to Amtrak. Ticket was very reasonable too for $19 one way from Greensboro to Charlotte . With the price of gas these days I found this to be very reasonable.
