Amtrak Atlanta Birmingham recent customer reviews

We enjoyed the ride. But on our return the train was very late. Having a 6 year old traveling was a disaster. We were to get home at 11pm but got home at 2:30am had to walk a distance to get to the car when my 6 year old crying and I am tired and sleepy and had to drive 1.5 hour drive home. Not happy
