I actually got lucky on my two Amtrak excursions, and was not late by more than an hour.

Because delays seems to be on the rise, I would not travel on Amtrak, unless I could pay for at least a roomette. The meals are included, and the privacy is nice, to wait out long delays...

1st trip was Minneapolis to Seattle to LA.

2nd trip was Dallas to El Paso, and back.
