Latest glich discovered that Business class has disappeared from booking of all LD trains including Crescent and Starlight. Was there a few days earlier.
An example of the difficulty with working with the new version: when checking the performace of a particular train over several days, it used to be necesssary to change only the date; now it is necessary to go back to the beginning of the request and enter all of the information.
I have not yet searched for much in the new version, but it has taken me much time to find what I want.

Even the people who did the last trains web site update would do better ~ !

When a trial booking WASH - BOS takes me thru CHI there is a problem. And another thru ALB as primary ? ? ?
NKP guy My experience with the new website is the same: It's a disaster. It's much more difficult & frustrating to use. But in a way it's indicative of what lies ahead for the passenger: These days, traveling by Amtrak ain't what it used to be. I used it to plan a trip Erie to Flagstaff, didn't find to be too difficult. Some folks don't like to embrace change.

My wife had similar complaints with American Airlines' website after changes were made following the US Airways merger. After a few times, she got used to the changes and get through it quite nicely.

Was waiting for a comment. Amtrak changed their web site last Sunday Oct 7th . It has been a disaster ever since. Sometimes ( actually most ) they go to what is called Amtrak lite. Cannot even find link to timetables. Know that this on another topic thread.
