Amtrak safe?

Travel Info
Is the security on the Amtrak train route between Seattle and Portland good enough for a grandmother and 2 young children to ride alone?

Travel Tips

Yes! It is safe and beautiful, and rather comfortable, too.
There are some seats where you can all sit together facing each other ... request this at the seating kiosk where they assign seats.

ALso.... take the Amtrak Cascades .. NOT the Coast Starlight!!!

I take the train from Vancouver BC to Eugene OR every 8-10 weeks, and find it very nice. As in any place, you will want to accompany them to the restroom, but if you use the handicapped restroom near the Snack car, you can all go in together.

Enjoy!!

sure if they don't crash into something
and/or if they don't derail, they are

but as far as riding no one should mess with them on the train
i've rode on it before
It's still safer than travel on the roads.
Yes, it is safe.
Hey, you're in the US, the safest country in the world, right?

Yes, I've riden the train many times through there without any problems
