Amtrak their truck hit us

We were involved in an accident a year ago in March in Massachusetts. An Amtrak truck ran a red light and hit the van that we were driving that had prisoners in it. We were all taken to the hospital in ambulances. We have never received any compensation for this accident for are pain and suffering and loss of personal property. I have been in contact with the insurance company several times and I keep getting the same remark we haven't got any paperwork I have sent it three times. I am tired of the run around they think just because they are a big company they can just push us to the side. I feel this is totally wrong.

Due to the recent grounding, our flights were cancelled on 11/09 from MCO to DCA. In order to get home ASAP, we went to the Amtrak station. There was a train coming in 10 minutes but the cost was $363.85 ONE WAY. We felt that AMTRAK raised their prices due to the high demand caused by the grounded flights and we are requesting a partial refund.

I have been on the train for over 5 hours without a fresh air break. I keep getting up, every time we stop, but our doors never open. I want fresh air. I need to stand up and get circulation in my legs and a cigarette would be nice.

Horrible experience. Train 3 hrs late to Albany NY. Was to connect to train in NYC to Delaware. Last train for day. Amtrak would not make any promise of what would be done if stranded in NYC overnight. Could not reach any higher lever personnel to discuss situation on that day or since. Had to spend $150 in Albany hotel to wait for next day.

Train "95 departing from penn station New York City leaving at 10:35 actually left at 10:59. I am traveling to Baltimore for a doctors appointment at Johns Hopkins so time is of the essence. It's hard to know if Amtrak is reliable enough for us to use regularly for doctors appointments.

Our train arrived late going from New York to South Carolina and it was late coming back into New York. 3 hrs late each way was an inconvenience both ways. How can we be compensated for this ?
