    Fredericksburg Amtrak Station
    Vicky M.

    Fredericksburg, VA Amtrak Station is by far the WORST!!You NEVER know which side of the track the Train is coming and it's not an easy run with luggage to get to the other side. You're just hoping and praying after sitting there waiting, you don't miss your train. There is a screen for the VRE delays, departures-wondering why this station doesn't have a screen for Amtrak to let passengers know the same information plus which side of the track. It would also be kind if they would add a beverage machine. This 'Unmanned' station needs to change. Just awful. No bathrooms, No assistance, NOTHING! Absolutely NOTHING is there.

    Please avoid this Amtrak stop ,specially female solo travelers.There are no restrooms ,no charging…read morefor phones , not even an Amtrak kiosk machine.The nearby business have signs banning Amtrak passengers from using restroom or charging phones even if is an emergency.The a convince store nearby will not allow you to plug anything even if you spend $10 .This is very ghost area and not many choices of overnight stays if left stranded bye Amtrak.

    Firstly I did not ride the train. We dropped our our son who came to visit. I will start with the…read moretrain conductor, a female. I wanted to give her the benefit of a doubt but quickly changed to the realization that she was just simply RUDE. Train was 9/10/2023. I believe #99. Stopping in Fredericksburg VA final destination Newport News. The way she spoke to passengers and the lack of control with her voice was as if the passengers were boarding a train bound for hell. No seriously she was rude yelling "Last Name" "get on board". No eye contact. Prior to this I was considering using Amtrak to visit my son as it seemed so convenient. But nope, not after seeing how rude she was. Yea folks it takes just one person. As Apprehensive as I was her attitude sealed my decision. Second the train station was dirty, smelly (urine) it literally backed to a restaurant and while it looks like the city is working on the structural issues they need daily attention to the cleanliness of the facilities. I was surprised as to how many passengers came off the train at our stop. Trash was littered all over. Only one bench on the south bound side of the tracks. This is a historic town where locals pride themselves on their homes and historic buildings and this left me very upset as to how neglected the train station was. I do t know who has the responsibility to clean it. But someone needs to step up.

    A great station that offers all the bells and whistles needed for your Amtrak travel needs…read more Generally there are attendants and crew available to help. There is a snack bar inside. But, if you plan ahead you can totally pick up some food. They recently went through an update maybe 1-2 years ago. But, my brain calendar could totally be off. I don't know what I did yesterday. Joking. But, the updates are great. Clean and crisp. There is a good amount of seating as well. This station can and will get crowded so plan accordingly.

    One of my favorite things about being back home in Richmond is the ease of traveling up and down…read morethe East Coast, and the Amtrak Staples Mill station is always my go-to. It's usually clean--even if it's often crowded--and there's overnight parking available if you need it (though I typically just get dropped off). On this particular trip, my mom dropped me off about 10 minutes before departure, and it was smooth sailing from there. The trains are consistently timely, which I really appreciate when I'm doing quick trips to places like D.C. or Baltimore. The staff is always pleasant enough--clear with directions, helping folks find the right boarding areas, and making announcements that actually help you stay on track (pun intended, LOL). It's convenient. It's cost-effective. It's reliable. And honestly, that's all I need when I'm on the move. Richmond to anywhere up the coast just makes sense from Staples Mill.
