Amtrak from Penn Station IN Newark NJ

[rapunzal]

Just wondering how the train boarding is? My husband is moving a bit slower than usual because of an operation. I remember taking trains to New York and having to run to the train as it pulls in. Does this Orlando bound train pull into the same area each time? Will this be easy? Do the coach seats recline at all. The prices for the rail sales are great! Has any one taken the train to Orlando or Sanford ? Which is the easiest? And why? Thanks

hi i just got back on wednesday-

we went form newark to orlando- and we also booked thru the railsale.

we had plenty of time to get on the train- the train stops for a few minutes- to let people off . You need to be their half an hour before to be able to check your luggage in.

the coach chairs recline back and you have plenty of leg room-
i do suggest you bring a blanket - it gets very very cold onboard.

we loved our trip- and found it more relaxing than driving.

have a great time!!!
