BTW the rest of the staff was also very friendly and helpful.
No issues love the RR.
Thank you Sandra and Ron.
Ehh, it's a train station. No beds to lay on when you're waiting for hours. Feels really historic, probably is. Gets you to Seattle or Chicago.
Amtrak is the worst travel service during the winter! I have used them for the past 3 months with not many issues and fairly decent service. But in the month of December I practically had not one trip that wasn't delayed for more than 5 hours. If your traveling for the holidays fly or drive unless you want to sleep in the train station and waste precious hours of your life waiting on Amtrak.
My husband and I want to thank Amtrak employees for going above and beyond to help us. They saved an otherwise delightful trip from being ruined. Sandra at Whitefish, Montana Station and Ron, conductor between Whitefish and Everett, WA.
Train not planes!
As the train was delayed returning to Everett, we took occasion to charge our cell phones. In the rush to load the train, neither of us grabbed our phones. Realizing within minutes our situation, we contacted the conductor Ron. We were already in the mountains of Montana and out of phone range. He explained to us that the station would be locked and secure until preparation for the arrival of the Eastbound train tomorrow morning. We had a sleepless night waiting for the time he could call. He tried just prior to the scheduled opening time and Sandra answered the phone. I explained our plight and she located them, offering to put them on the next westbound Amtrak to Everett station. I never realized how handicapped we were with out communication. How grateful we are to these two employees for saving our vacation and so much more in the value of our cell phones.
Love riding the train. This is a nice stop along a pretty efficient route
