Amtrak User Reviews
Amtrak receives praise for its timely train and bus services, ensuring that travel purposes are fulfilled. However, some users have noted concerns about the temperature being too cold during night journeys and instances of unnecessary rudeness from operators. Additionally, there were reports of passenger overloading in certain coaches despite available space elsewhere on the train.
Drivers were amazing (1 in training I believe) No curbs, no heavy breaking, friendly. The only thing I noticed negative was; no charging ports at seats or wifi. In all fairness; I only expected those things because of the side of the bus saying it was available. I don't know if those amenities were Included with booking. (Why I didn't deduct stars)
Stephanie S.
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.
Satisfied in that it got me where I was going. Bathroom was not clean. Milwaukee station confusing, taking elevator up, walking to another elevator, and taking elevator down across the tracks.
Jeanne D.
Delayed arrival due to clash with goods train also needing the time. Arrived over 1.5 hrs late which was very inconvenient for the pickup arrangements in Vancouver. Plus no platform and cramped slow immigration processing after a very delayed journey was pretty primitive.
Neville C.
Very easy and simple. Train was quite fast. I didn’t know when we got to Philadelphia I was asleep and almost missed my stop lol! Will start using the train more often
Sidney I.
