amtrak needs more funding man. our trip up to montreal was seamless, our trip down we had to wait for rails to be fixed, now there’s an engine issue, and on top of everything someone has decided to start rampantly farting

HEAVY AMTRAK AND METRO-NORTH DELAYS INTO AND OUT OF NYC TO CONNECTICUT DUE TO POWER LINE DOWN.

High Voltage Line Down Causes Interruption on Metro North Line #breakingnow #fairfield Amtrak and Metro Train Stopped due to high voltage line down on a train 2600 block of Post Rd - About 1,000 passengers are on the trains involved - Service interrupted to the Metro North line

How does Amtrak completely sell out? I wanted to go from LA to San Diego to see someone today and there are zero tickets available… Anyway, if anyone is driving down that way let me know

.@Amtrak one of your employees today absolutely went above and beyond and made sure that my niece’s first concert experience was not ruined due to a mechanical malfunction that delayed us. I’d like to track down the great person who went out of their way to help me out.

Is the Amtrak site down or something?? @amtrak why won’t you let me buy my ticket??

no because why did they just tell us we had to exit our train cabin and go to another one so they could shut it down 😭 have you not put me through enough today amtrak??

stuck in baltimore because of an amtrak power outage and i’m this close to going to hooters or getting black out drunk at the orioles game

Hey @Amtrak we’ve been broke down in Virginia for two hours now and not a single update. This is a major issue.

our amtrak train got terminated due to a power line being down (thankfully on route 128 with commuter rail distance) so we had to switch lines. just realized i forgot my cookie on the original train… devastating

If Amtrak comes down a lil on prices it’s over I only fly w/ refundable fares and its the same price 🙃 Guess I know how ai’m bring my cello back home

I had booked an Amtrak down to Florida next month for my next leg of HBCU tours.. and I thought, dang, am I gonna hate that when it’s so fast to just fly? After this trip… no. I absolutely will not. I’d love to walk down to the cafe car right about now.

First Amtrak delay and it’s over a HORN NOT WORKING.

Missing a Tatum heater cus this train is going through all the dead spots so my service is shotty and their wifi is currently down . Thanks for an hour delay and no wifi @Amtrak

i wanted to see how feasible taking amtrak is to go down to NC for work and it's literally 10x longer and 3x more expensive than a main cabin delta flight....

Due to winter storms, I'm delayed taking Amtrak down to Texas to see my Mom - for the last time - & to say my final goodbye.

Lily philips is like amtrak the way these trains not working out as planned

Amtrak cancelling a train just hours before it's supposed to leave and then having its 1997-style website melt down so it's not possible to reschedule is a real highlight of this holiday weekend. #PrivatizeAmtrak

I sat down near my work computer and almost instantly heard an Amtrak train

is the amtrak website down or are they just mad at me

On Amtrak, pirating PDFs from Anna's Archive, which is great BUT I miss forums! The torrent websites are quiet, AAAARG is down, where to go from here

Take Amtrak, bus, cars, and flights down from the blue cities for the holidays

Hey @Amtrak it seems like your WiFi is down on the 86 train

In case you were wondering whether Amtrak still sucks: Yes, Amtrak still completely sucks. Stranded on tracks for last 45 mins because of power outage. They guess another hour to 90 mins to restore power. People exiting to take Ubers. So much for my afternoon meetings in NYC.

In a news release, Amtrak cited “reports of a brush fire” east of Pennsylvania Station in Manhattan as the reason for the power outage.

Yo @PeteButtigieg I know it’s Election Day so you’re probably busy, but how the **** can an Amtrak train be 6 hours late in a serious system? A 1:40 arrival shouldn’t be expected after 2, let alone 7. And who makes up for all the cancelled plans and ruined trip?

watching an amtrak cop speed down to a gate on a segway is a mystifying experience. hope everything is okay
