Amtrak User Reviews
Amtrak receives praise for its comfortable and modern trains, with friendly staff enhancing the travel experience. However, several reviews mention delays as a common issue, affecting journey times significantly. Additionally, there are mixed experiences regarding Wi-Fi availability on different routes which some travelers found problematic during their trips.
I was appreciative that one of the workers helped me get on the train.. and one of the porters helped me to get my bag before my stop. It was my first train ride in a long time, and really enjoyed the time to relax and enjoy the scenery along the way. The only angst I had was when they announced that only certain doors would open to exit at the stops along the way, and since I was in the last car, that I would not make it to the door on time. Thankfully the door at my car opened at my stop. Overall tho, a pleasant experience and I would not hesitate to do it again.

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.
Fatima H.
The seats were so comfortable. Staff was so nice and helpful. I have not taken the train in years and was very stressed because of my air travel. The 4 hour delay because if the suicide on the track was not fun. But that is not the trains fault.
