    We arrived here on the way to Chicago. The interior is pristine and both floors have restrooms…read more There are 4 floors with the first for the bus station and tickets. There is seating, vending machines, Subway, an ATM, and children's books. An extensive bus schedule is next to the ticket booth. The second floor is Amtrak and the READY school. There's the ticket counter, seating, charging station, and portraits about African American figures and chapters throughout Champaign, IL (a great read!). The READY school and third floors are not accessible to visitors.

    I drove to Champaign to catch the City of New Orleans Amtrak train, looking to use the free parking…read moreI had heard was available. It was very convenient. There is a fairly large well-lit lot (that was mostly empty when I arrived) just on the other side of the tracks from the station (go around the block to the east). The lot is marked with signs saying "Illinois Terminal. Parking by Permit Only." The easiest approach is to park there and walk around the north side to the station. Once inside Illinois Terminal, go to the second floor (the Amtrak area) and look for the sign on the pole saying "Long Term Parking Registration." Grab a blank form, fill it out (car make/color/license, Amtrak reservation number, name, phone, date returning), and drop it in the box. All set. Nothing to put in your car. The station itself is clean, attractive, and comfortable. Nothing outstanding, but perfectly usable. When the train arrives, they have a system of a single file line outside the door, where they check off everyone's name before sending them to the train. Definitely a fine option for parking and catching the City of New Orleans.
