Our room was clean, the windows were not. If you are a resident of another country or region, please select the appropriate version of Tripadvisor for your country or region in the drop-down menu. We had requested 2-sleeper suites with the room divider opened. I asked our attendant for ice water. The bathrooms were disgusting!!! A basic sandwich or burger or hot dog would have been nice all saucy and or spicy frozen style meals and for 2 days the same few menu items for lunch and dinner just terrible. the conductor on this train made it very clear that they took these policies very seriously. There was no redcap to meet us, even though it was supposedly pre-arranged...we were told to follow the cart, and she would lead us to the lounge, but we were quickly left behind to wrangle all our bags and get to the Metropolitan lounge.

I asked for a breakfast option instead but was told no breakfast for lunch or dinner but later she gave me her breakfast sandwich she didn't have a chance to eat, so nice! if the sun was just right, it could be difficult to get a good picture. We got off the train and quickly realized that we were not in Portland anymore.

While in the lounge, we were greeted by a car attendant who introduced himself, and chatted us up a little about what to expect.

Well trained: You have some good ideas but Viewliners don't have luggage racks or downstairs rooms to store stuff in. We were really looking forward to this trip, and maybe it is better in non-covid times, but the service, cleaningness and friendliness of the staff were the very worst I have seen on any vacation, including those vacations spent at RV parks in a pop up camper. my experience is if you can carry it you can take it,,, and I have never seen a full luggage rack,, although NWC's suggestion for the upper bunk is terribly sensible if you are alone,,,,. I would consider maybe another trip during non-covid times. When it came time to board, our friendly redcap was there to take us to our car. This was our first trip on Amtrak, which was booked back in February for a HS senior trip for my daughter. That and a bagged salad and we had a notewortyhy meal on the train. Meals were a bit of a disappointment during these Covid times, especially after hearing about very good meals from my brother-in-law that traveled on Amtrak last year.

when I tried to clean up after ourselves, the attendant assured us that she would be happy to do that for us. It was a good experience. I will continue the review of the Capitol limited on that page.... One more thing....concerning the menu...Amtrak would be better off keeping the kitchen staff and the servers, and send them to take orders and deliver to the "First Class" passengers. Or have an attendant by the drink machine assisting customers with drinks. This was our first trip on the train. If you are at any risk of flu or covid I would never, ever ride this train. Understanding that COVID has changed some things but on their flexible dining menu they could do more. You are in very close accomadations and I saw nothing wiped down with anything let alone sanitizer the entire 48 hours we spent on the train.

Don't even try to go into the lounge car if you do not have a reservation. I am taking a trip in October from Wisconsin to Montana on the Empire Builder booked in a roomette both ways. It was far too much for us to justify when compared to the $147 coach tickets. resolve but did not have rooms available. I didn't see anyone cleaning anything (observation car, door touch points, or community bathrooms or shower during our two days on the train besides in the dining car.

I planned for the worst and I was glad I did. You'll want to sanitize your room before going in. There was an announcement 15 min until closing, but then 5 min later they announced that they were closed. Is this a place or activity you would go to on a, Union Station Rail service from Chicago, IL, to Seattle, WA and Portland, OR, Chicago, IL. I was so nauseous from the food it ruined my experience one menu for lunch and dinner for two days and nothing sat well with me. a few eateries were open, and I will say that out of the three lounges, the metropolitan in Chicago was the most aesthetically pleasing. We enjoyed the observation car watching the world go by sipping a drink and not having to worry. No issue. On April 29, the Empire Builder is given the train numbers #31 and #32. Inconceivable to me that, with more than one sleeper, they'd all be full. All in all we enjoyed our time on the train and would do it again. See all the most important buildings on one tour, a hard-to-accomplish task on foot. It was made clear that passengers could be de-trained if found to be out of compliance.

Traveled from Chicago to Kalispell and back in a roomette very nice room attendants on both trips. Our kids ended up not getting anything that morning. Former River series Observation cars (from the 1947 Postwar Empire Builder) are remodeled into Coulee Series observations with additional sleeper accommodations. However due to the longer trip, I'd like to bring a larger piece of luggage on board. You will have your choice of about 7 of the same meals for lunch and dinner. Thanks for your help and suggestions.....Always a wealth of knowledge! We took train from St. Paul to Whitefish.

It has bedrooms (A-E) on the upper level, roomettes (1-14) on both levels and a family room (15) and a hadicap room (H) on the lower level. Another would be to check with the SCA for some options/help -- like maybe one of the nearby roomettes is going to be empty for a while and maybe you can store it there until some space opens up in the luggage rack.Or in the ADA bedroom on first floor, which is often not in use at all, except as a storage area for sleeper supplies and refuse. I cannot believe they get away with such little cleaning, even if it were non-covid times. Amtrak did try to. She forgot it, and when I asked for it, she told me to go down a get a bottle of water from her supplies!

Since the OP is traveling on the EB, the issue of baggage storage in a Viewliner vestibule is probably a moot point. View the skyline from the Chicago River while listening to live commentary.

Although...no snacks or drinks were offered that we could see. Masks were mandatory when outside of our room, or if our door was left open. We were on a total 10 night trip, so we had our larger suitcases. I would classify Wisconsin as the earlier part of that trip, so I'd anticipate no problem either. That’s well worth it, in our opinion! We had a roomette, which includes meals. Usually no, as the checked baggage should be there 30 minutes before arrival of the train. The views were spectactular and our trip to Glacier was amazing, but consider a different mode of transport if you want to stay safe. This car has both sleeper rooms for passengers on the upper level and sleeper rooms for the crew. The limited choices are too limited! Please choose a different date. 1956. Don’t blame Amtrak this is something our agent should have confirmed when our documents arrived. Sleeper. Having said that the food was no horrible just wanted more options. The bathrooms were nice to have if needed in the middle of the night, but very tiny and included a toilet and a shower head. RV parks have cleaner bathrooms.

If you are getting on a car with Nancy as your attendant, RUN!!!! I'd still like to have my carry on suitcase, laptop bag and the backpack. One time when I was coming back from a shopping trip in New York.
