I rode Amtrak from SLC, Utah to Denver Colorado. I purchased a room first class travel because my 85 year old mother accompanied me. We were to board at 3:00 am SLC AND LEAVE AT 3:30 AM. The train was late so it was 5:30 am before we pulled out. Our room was clean, fresh and our beds were turned down. The ride was re routed thru Wyoming because of the wild fires in Colorado. So from SLC to Denver it was a non stop ride. The menu on board for first class passengers was absolutely horrible. We had breakfast, lunch and dinner. Amtrak has beautiful dining cars with a full equipt kitchen below. The food was worse than airline food. All microwave prepared and tasted like a rubber ball.
