can I ship a pickup truck out of Pittsburgh, PA to San Francesco, CA? And what is the cost?

Rob Heinz | Dec 31, 2019
W B | Jan 1, 2020

Amtrak does not ship cars (with the exception of the autotrain to FL). There are companies who arrange this service. Look up auto shipping by rail on the web. You can also ship by tractor trailer which may be a more affordable option. Again look on the web for that option. I did a ship by truck from Indy to SFO a few years ago. I basically placed a Max cost bid out on the web and a independent driver grabbed it with 24-hours.

W B | Jan 1, 2019

You can park overnight in the Grant Street Transportation Center Garage. They have a website where u can reference costs. Be sure to tell the attendant that u will be leaving your car overnight so you can fill out the proper form. For a 7 am train I would get there at 6:15. If you have the option you should check the Amtrak website to check to see if your train is on time before you head to the station. Trains are often late/delayed.

Do they still have smoking cars?

Coralye Queen | Aug 22, 2021
Steve Mortimer | Aug 23, 2021

No. Amtrak has "smoking" stops. Which are usually about 15 minutes long. Most stops are much quicker and there is no opportunity to get off the train. I don't know if there are any of these longer stops between Pittsburgh and DC. I've seen them on the long haul routes like San Francisco to Chicago.
