The walls and walkway aren't crumbling anymore, and it appears to be a work in progress. Now it's 3 stars, hoping to elevate again soon. THANKS Amtrak!!! ORIGINAL: Erie's Amtrak station needs to be made presentable. Taking the train is a wonderful experience and the perfect option for someone who 1. doesn't want to fly and 2. doesn't choose to take the bus and stop in every small town on the map and then some. Amtrak itself and its friendly conductors and staff are great. It's the concrete walkways into the Amtrak Erie Station and up to the boarding area that are unbelievably shabby. This dilapidation offers a sharp contrast to much of the rest of the beautifully restored Union Station and its microbrewery. As a local resident and regular train traveler, it breaks my heart to think this is the impression Erie leaves on other passengers who also use this station. Please consider even minimal renovations to this part of the architecturally stunning Union Station so that it can match the rest of the building's classiness. Let's leave a positive imprint on those who walk through its historic doors.

The inside of the trains is another story ... not really clean ... the roommettes and sleeper cars are full of dust and carpet smells and needs a lot of updating bc the prices are not cheap for a tiny space w bunk beds.

The "decorations" were scarce and raggedy, absolutely none at the station. Promised photo opportunities but there were absolutely none and had to snap pictures in a hurry of the ONLY festivity (the Clauses). No christmas music or lights, no cookies and the cocoa was box cocoa watery. I held such high hopes to a stop in south dayton at the park were a bunch of festivities were also happening, and their site states they stop, but instead yhe train went very slowly just outside of gowanda (where you board) leaving one side of the train to look at a hill and the other down the hill. Boarding on and off was treated like hearding cattle rather than welcoming.

Last Friday, we were planning on attending a play at a theater downtown and decided to take the train in from Amherst. I checked the schedule on line to figure which time would work best for us. The train left at exactly the listed time & got us to our stop right on time. Coming home was exactly the same. I'm not sure if during peak periods it's like this. The only complaint was the lack of cleanliness. Our train car had spilled beverages on seats and trash all over. The ride home was better. I wouldn't hesitate to do this again. So much easier to driving downtown and paying crazy parking fees. The train ride is $2 and only $1 for seniors. 2023-87
