Pros
I liked that the train on the ride back left right on time and that when my first train was canceled, I was able to get on the next one without any issues.
Cons
My first train got canceled, so if that could not happen or if there was more of a warning it would have been nice.

MKA has no person in the station, so you are on your own to answer any questions OR get help from fellow passengers. Also it seems an Amtrak ticket for the day is actually good for any time.

Pros
I haven't traveled like this in awhile, and hope to do it again. Very nice. One day hoping for a window seat! Want to try the cafe car.
Cons
The lateness couldn't be helped. I made the next train just as staff we announcing the gate would close in thirty seconds. That was a bit jarring, but I understand.

We recommend you bring a book or download a movie just to play it safe.

With the onboard power outlets, you can charge both a computer and USB devices with a power outlet USB converter that typically come with most phones and tablets. Since Amtrak Hiawatha might sometimes use replacement train vehicles, not all trips are guaranteed to have power outlets.
