Amtrak seldom runs on time. Even short runs, like NY to Toronto, can be delayed by freight (which has ROW) or trouble on the ONLY line available for traffic in some places. It’s not the kind of travel for people with a strict schedule.

I did the Denver east run once, to get to Omaha. Most of it was at night. We met some interesting people in the club car to talk to and while away the hours.

It’s on time in the northeast corridor, barring a few exceptions - which was most of my exposure in college. But they aren’t sharing the line with freight there.

I still enjoy train travel a lot. Mr. klys and I have dreams of doing from London to Tokyo via train and ferry at one point in retirement.
