This was the first time that I took the Amtak train so I was looking forward to it. I was cutting it short on time, I was flustered and I couldn't find my credit/ATM card. I asked if I could give them the number with my pin and security number. They said no which didn't help. Then I took their bus to Stockton, CA and there is no actual train station just a parking lot, without a phone or bathroom! A lady that lives there also told me that area was the bad side of town, great. The train seemed to take forever standing in the cold without any covering! The customer service was lousy the people were very snooty,& cold no smiles. They cleaned the bathroom so they were clean but sprayed all the chemicals with the doors right by my seat, so it irritated my nose. I also thought the baggage area was very small, so I got to keep my bags with me at my seat. I didn't expect all the stops either but I guess that is to be expected. Would I do it again, yes but for the price there should be a bathroom & a phone for an emergency. It was an adventure!
