Pros: It was great to be able to sit in the observation car on the train. Cons: I was a bit confused by the word ‘coach’ on my booking, so I had thought it was a bus and not a train that I was getting. Happy to find out it was in fact a train. Tips: Wanderu seems pretty easy to use and the price of the train from Seattle to Portland was better than I had expected.

WiFi - if there was any onboard it wasn't working at all so I had to use my hotspot on my phone which drained my battery.

Pros: Amtrak has completely remodeled & updated the passenger cars. The cafe/snack menu was great & tasted great. Toughest test: Coffee…..4.5 stars! Attendant cheerful, alert, & enthused. Cons: The railroad industry has 100 car trains……too long to fit on a passing siding. So even tho Amtrak has priority; we Had to pull over & wait. Tips: For me, the Uber option NOW makes going by Amtrak a complete solution.

It’s second time to Portland but everything looks fresh to me. The views, buildings, and foods are amazing.

Pros: It was more comfortable than a bus but it was fully booked and a clearly high guy with no mask sat next to me halfway through the trip and rambled incoherently at me. Cons: Mask enforcement. I doubt you could stop that guy from getting high. Tips: Get up and stretch every hour.
