Amtrak Thruway

Pros: Drivers are always very helpful and pleasant. Answer any questions I have. Buses run on time. Cons: Online schedule is not always clear. I wanted to go from Oshkosh to the Milwaukee airport, but the schedule did not indicate I would be able to catch another bus right away to the airport, when we got to downtown Milwaukee. The driver was very helpful and did inform me another bus would be waiting when we go to Milwaukee to go to the airport!
