Amtrak Bakersfield Santa Clarita recent customer reviews

The Busride and driver were Great!! However, This is the 2nd time in a row where I had to wait for about 1.5 hours for the connecting train to arrive to Bakersfield so passengers could board my bus before we could leave Bakersfield to Santa Clarita. Any chance for my Next Bus ride to be Complimentary for any inconvenience I have encountered??
