It does only run in 1 route from Main Street in downtown Kansas City. It has 16 stops pretty well spaced out and goes to the River City Market areas to Union Station, in addition to other spots in the city. I liked it because it was a quick ride up and down, runs from 6am to midnight or 1am or 7am to midnight depending on what day. And cars run every 10 to 15 min/ 12 to 18 min. The cars are clean, air conditioned, and have ample seating/handles for standing. At the end of each stop you have to exit and re enter at the other side. Nobody is allowed to remain on board at the end of the line. It is nice to know that the car operates during holidays, but modified hours. Looking forward to exploring this option again once I'm back for a visit since more extensions will be opening soon.

They took my information and said that a driver would be dispatched to be at my house for the trip. At 6:15, no taxi came, no one called and I called Yellow Cab and talked to a robot "the next available driver would be sent". At 6:30, no call, no taxi, I called and demanded to talk to a human who just like the robot said the "next available driver would be sent" With the train scheduled to leave at 7:13am, my wife trying to load the uber app and schedule a ride, I panicked and we took our car where it would stay in the "Amtrak" parking lot for a week at $24 per day. I received calls from 2 drivers as I was driving to Union Station, both had just received an assignment to pick me up at home but neither was at my house when they called.

I have to take ride KC to the hospital for I have no means of transportation. My only…read moretransportation is Ride KC. The first problem happened when I was being transported to KU. The driver almost dropped me off at a civilian area instead of the main entrance to the hospital. When I get the messages, it's an automated message. The message states ''Your vehicle is on its way'' and it also states ''Your Vehicle has arrived'' In which is confusing because sometimes I do not see the vehicle that is supposed to pick me up. The automated messages do not state that the driver is late until they have missed me, in which should not happen. Sometimes, the driver goes to the wrong entrance. Why? It's mainly due to their GPS system being outdated. Even most drivers claim that their personal GPS system has way better tracking then the one that is both required and is supplied to them. This review is to state that the GPS system that is supplied to the drivers either needs to be disconnected or allow drivers to use their own personal GPS.

The Kansas City Area Transportation (KCATA) "is a public transit agency in metropolitan Kansas…read moreCity. It operates the Metro Area Express (MAX) bus rapid transit service in Kansas City, Missouri, and 89 local bus routes in seven counties of Missouri and Kansas," says Wikipedia. I rode it from the Kansas City Airport to the downtown area recently. Have to say it's nice that KC has a scheduled bus service from their airport to their bustling downtown district. What a concept! Here in San Diego there is no direct dedicated bus line or trolley to or from San Diego's Airport that carries people to where they need to go. The cab union made sure of that. Therefore, I was happy to see I could catch the 229 at Kansas City Airport's Terminal C and save myself a $40 Uber ride downtown. Now I had no idea what to expect getting on a bus in such an urban area that I had never been to. But I sat upfront and hung out near the bus driver. Sure there was some sketchy folks riding the bus, who, thankfully, headed towards the back but the vast majority of riders seemed decent & looking to get somewhere like a job or school. The bus I was on appeared clean and was on schedule. It was a reasonable $1.50 to ride one-way and you can purchase day passes for $3.00. Fares are discounted for the disabled to .75 cents one-way, if you show your Medicare card. I was impressed enough to give KCATA a very respectable 4 YELP STARS.

Well, I needed to bus it because flying was prohibitively expensive and the train would have dropped me off an hour outside of Wichita at 4 AM. These were not good options. Greyhound it was. I arrived at the station just ass early, and as I expected, it was filled with a menagerie of characters, most of which with whom I didn't want to make eye contact. The station was pretty dirty, and really just a place of sadness. I don't think I ever want to go back there again. But then I got on the bus, and everything was A-OK! I was actually shocked at how nice it was, with spacious seats, a comfy temperature and....get this! They had free wifi AND places to plug in your laptop! I was able to work from the bus the entire trip, and didn't have to worry about losing juice. That's worth it's price in gold, boys and girls. So yeah, I will never say "hey honey, let's take a trip on Greyhound!" but if I need to do it again, I won't be as scared or preemptively skeeved out. And that is definitely worth 3 stars.

While this particular station's waiting area leaves something to be desired (mostly restrooms in…read morethe immediate area and a non-working outdoor elevator) I have had nothing but good experiences with the staff and Amtrak in general. It is risky taking the train. That is just the nature of the beast. If the train runs into bad weather, there may be delays. If something runs into a train anywhere from California to Kansas City, that train might not arrive on time. It's a bit of a gamble, but when and if these things happen, the staff is fully prepared to take care of their customers. The seats on the train are very comfortable, and recline almost all the way. The rommettes are equally as comfortable and provide a space for two people to lay down. Coming with each roommette is entry to the first class lounge in stations that provide one (Kansas City, sadly does not), AND meals in the Dining Car. While I have only experienced dinner service on an Amtrak train I can say with full confidence IT IS DELICIOUS. I was shocked the first time I ate dinner on the train. I love the pasta primavera, chocolate cake, cheesecake, coconut shrimp, and brie salad. This meal also comes with a glass of Kendall Jackson wine, or craft beer. Yesterday I took an Amtrak train from Chicago to Kansas City, and although weather was windy and rainy, our train was 17 minutes EARLY. 5/5 for Amtrak in general and 4/5 for the Kansas City station.
