Limited-time sale for travel on the Auto Train
WASHINGTON – Amtrak is inviting customers to experience the comfort and convenience of a sleeping car aboard the Auto Train. The time to book has never been better with our latest sale: one person in a group of two can travel for free. This sale is for a Roomette or Bedroom andis available exclusively on Amtrak.com from July 22 to July 29. The special offer is valid for travel from Jan. 15 to March 22, 2020.
The Auto Train offers daily, non-stop service from Lorton, Va. (near Washington, D.C.), and Sanford, Fla. (near Orlando). Customers can skip I-95 and travel with their vehicles, including cars, vans, SUVs, motorcycles, and even small boats or jet-skis. It is the only such service in the U.S. and eliminates nearly 900 miles of driving between the Northeast and all points in Florida.
“We recognize the need
to get more out of every moment and customers will enjoy a stress-free
journey by train,” Amtrak President and CEO Richard Anderson
said. “With our sleeper sale, customers can share
the experience and take advantage of the changes and enhancements we are
bringing to the Auto Train.”
By 2020, Amtrak will introduce several changes and
enhancements for the Auto Train. Visit
Amtrak.com

way, plus the cost of the vehicle.
The Auto Train is
the longest passenger train in the world with two locomotives and 40-plus
passenger rail cars and vehicle carriers. While traveling, customers can move
around the train, visit the lounge car for beverages or snacks and relax in the
comfort of a private room.
