We looked forward to our mini vacation and even booked a First Class bedroom on the train. The previous month we had booked an amtrak roomette and enjoyed it so much we decided to do it again this month on a longer route with a bigger room. During that train ride, we had excellent service in first Class ! The attendants were awesome ! They were very friendly, attentive, and happy to see ya ! This recent journey, however, wasn't even on par. Sadly because we had expectations of an awesome experience again but it wasn't even close. I will say though, in everyone else's defense, it was really only 1 person that made the trip so miserable; Jan, the lead attendant in the First Class dining car. She was not happy. Not nice. Talked down to you if you accidentally did something wrong that went against her routine. Just not polite at all. Ever. She had a cutting , condescending demeanor toward not only the passengers but her fellow co worker working underneath her as well. Everything was done like roll call. Very routine and very strict very impersonal. No pleasure in her voice at all whether making announcements or talking to you directly. Not a good experience for us as far as dining goes. Our room attendant, on the other hand, was wonderful, and expressed care for her passengers. She was very attentive and a very sweet personality. In the end, this experience set us back a little bit with Amtrak. First Class rooms are too expensive to endure the treatment we received from her 3 times daily at mealtime. Something which should be pleasurable. I do not wish anyone the misfortune to get her as their dinning car attendant. I'm not sure if and when we will travel with Amtrak again.

(Part of a Christmas package) (We did an all public transportation experience and walked a bit.) We arrived about 45 mins before departure and got situated after conductor directed us where we needed to go. Lower level reservation is what we had. The chairs were comfy. Bathrooms clean! A couple of them were spacious as well. The space in the lower level car and the plugins were pretty awesome says my daughters. Took a visit to the cafe car when it opened up. Smiles from the staff. Thank you for being awesome On the return trip A Hicks - Train conductor made the girls day/night as we boarded the train some people were seated in lower with upper level seats. We got the logistics ironed out and away we are back to Oklahoma City. The ride was smooth and swift! **Only suggestions I have for Amtrak is better family friendly schedule for return trip. Leaving at 520pm was tough to plan out from the hotel standpoint...but we managed. Girls got a picture with the train driver!!! Mr Darryl did a fantastic job. We are already looking to book another train trip somewhere! Respectfully, Bryan and family Yukon, Oklahoma

However, there were two conductors I wanted to visit with in making my goodbyes. As a result, I boarded the train at the time my associates were working.

Upon returning to the T&P Station, our departure was very bittersweet. Walking away from the train, I made another quick glance toward the sweet memories I was leaving.

Fort Worth Central Station-- Fort Worth, TX…read more The Historic Wall was dedicated on Feb. 24, 2002, to commemorate the important and vibrant African-American commercial and historic warehouse district that existed at the site of the Fort Worth Central Station between 1865 and 1940. Trinity Metro developed this display to perpetuate the economic and cultural contributions of this era. Panel A | 1865-1876: The first panel of the Historic Wall celebrates the infancy of Fort Worth. African Americans were among the cowboys driving cattle to the city, as well as owning saloons and other service businesses. The first recorded African-American businessman was John Pratt, a blacksmith, in 1865. Panel B | 1876-1900: In 1876, the train arrived in Fort Worth brining settlers of Chinese, Irish and Africa-American descent to live in the city. Other transportation options sprung up including the first horse-drawn trolley. Panel C | 1900-1920: By 1907, there were more than 50 African-American-owned businesses flourishing in the area including doctors, hotels, barbershops, dentists, tailors, millineries, butchers, grocers and beauty shops. Panel D | 1920-1930: This era marked the beginning of modernization in Fort Worth. Deliveries were made by motor cars, as there were no more horses and mules in town. The city and the African-American business district began to diversify. Panel E | 1930-1940: The jazz age came to Fort Worth in a big way with performances at the Ritz Theater and Jim Hotel and the Masonic Mosque. T. Bone Walker (just learned about him at a Blues Festival ), Mahalia Jackson, Pops Carter, local drummer Sonny Strain and many others were seen at local clubs wearing zoot suits and saddle shoes. #FortWorthCentralStation #HistoryLesson #FunFacts #TheMoreYouknow #BlackHistory

The down side is there are absolutely no amenities or facilities, and that the train runs are spaced out far enough that you tend to spend a lot of time waiting.

So I IMMEDIATELY call to move the reservation to a late night Sat bus that is cheaper. I am told I have to pay $35. I don't have that currently. There are apparently no exceptions. There are no corporate office to call. There are no offices in the U.S. I explained that my son was barley 18 and it was his first time away from home, and that I couldn't leave him without a safe place alone in Indianapolis all night. I asked my options. I was told I had none. I said you and your company are not concerned about the safety of a young person? He answered"that's right". I was appalled. I asked again. "Greyhound doesn't care about the safety of a kid traveling? He repeated..."that's right". The said they couldn't help. They can't control the computer. That I could cancel if I wanted. But that still would cost the same amount. Absolutely NO concern or customer service. I have never in 40 years been blatantly told that the customer does not matter. Please do not book with Greyhound. And DEFINITELY do not trust them to ensure your children's safe travel. I called immediately after booking. And was shook down for $40 I didn't have at the expense of my son's safety. Shame on this company EDIT- Supervisor Himae took it up on himself to reach out and solve my son's travel issue. I understand that they have policies but he took the time to listen and help me get my son home safe. It's employees like this that make the corporate world still run. Without a personal touch customer service would be gone. I appreciate his help and as long as people like this work for greyhound, they may keep my business

The trains are relatively clean and pretty modern / up-to-date, and they travel at a decent speed (in general comparable to the BART). Overall the TRE is a great addition to the DFW metroplex but their downside is definitely the waiting anywhere between 20 minutes to an HOUR per train issue. Build more tracks & trains!

I want to add the caveat that this happened during Thanksgiving weekend, so a grain of salt is due…read more I booked a cab the night before so I could be sure a swift, easy to trip to the airport. I was concerned that, given the early hour and holiday weekend, a ride share wouldn't be as reliable as a licensed cab. The 6 AM cab was booked, I received a confirmation number, and I went to bed. The next morning, however, things took a turn. At 6 AM, with no cab in sight, I called the support number. The automated voice read my address (somewhat incorrectly) and then hung up after asking if I wanted to talk to an operator. I called backed, only to have the same thing happen. Then window from "press 0 to speak with a human" to hanging up was about 1.3 seconds. On round three, I got through to a young man who sounded a little harried. I asked about an eta for my cab and he said he didn't know. A driver would "pick up the ride" in any minute, since they were all just starting their day. I asked what he meant by "just starting their day," since I had booked and confirmed a pickup for 6AM. If the drivers only started at 6 and needed to be dispatched first, why was that even an option? I would have pressed further, but at this point the operator decided to hang up. It's now 6:10, and my flight is still leaving at the same time, so I'm getting a little worried. Then I get a new text. My driver has accepted my order and will be there...in 13-15 more minutes. I called the operator again to ask what was happening, but the automated voice seemed to be on the fritz as well (based on the other employees, she was probably just starting her shift). I opted to cancel the service and go with someone a bit more reliable.
