Omaha Amtrak Station

Is the station open now in Omaha

No the california zephhr does not. For full route check amtrak.com

Hi Gloria. I highly recommend using Uber or Lyft in Omaha. Omaha cabs can take a long time and can be u reliable. North of Lake St from Amtrak should be around $15-20. Also, considerably cheaper than taxi. Safe travels. Happy holidays!

Yes. The platform and station are easy access (very slight ramps) from the parking lot. The restrooms are fully ADA compliant. I am assuming you will be riding on the lower level. And the conductor can assist with a ramp if needed for boarding.

No. Train departures are at 11pm (train 5) and 5am (train 6). The station closes shortly after the AM departure, allowing of course for delays. It is closed all day long and opens for evening train.

The train stopped there last Sunday when I went thru. I didn't get of so I don't know what was available.

I bought online. But they have ticket counter. Cash or card

You have to wear a mask, shot or not.

Is there a safe place to leave my car?

Generally all security checkpoints are carried out at the ticketing area. Mostly to assure luggage compliance and safety measures are met. Aboard safety checks do occur on occasion to assure passenger safety.

Book a ticket on the California Zepher. Leaves Chicago everyday around 2. Headed west through Omaha.

I have only seen when the train just stops for fifteen minutes or so on its way through to the next stop.

Mop

Any car rentals in omaha

No

No lockers at the station

Yes, you can also buy them online through the am track website, fair warning there is no one present to sell tickets till the arriving and departing times usually around 2 am

west bound 11pm

For the least expensive price i would suggest using a ride sharing service like uber or Lyft, if you do not mind waiting there is a bus service that runs a few blocks away from the station

Not without changing trains in Chicago and DC

I'm there quite often and speak with the Amtrak agents on a regular basis. I've never heard of any cars being broke into. The lighting in the parking lot is a little dim and it's not in the greatest area, but I still believe it would be safe to park your car there for the week. A deterrent for would be thugs may be that there's a news station next door with workers in and out around the clock, plus, they have cameras all around their building. There's a lot of train traffic in the area too, which may also be a deterrent for thugs. I recommend parking between the news building and the station near the train tracks if you're going to park there.

Double check your dates

Opens 9pm until 8am? Only one train depot in Omaha, yes.

They are open from 9:30pm, until the morning train leaves which is around 6am.

Its scheduled to leave at 4:55 every morning as long as its on time

The train station is open til 7 am Horseshoe casino is about a thirty dollar ride by cab

No there isn't, just cabs and private transportation

Yes you can

I've never seen the Amtrak parking lot full in Omaha. You should be fine.

It's 1.5 - 2 miles from train station. In the pouring rain it's not fun.

Where exactly?

Trains no bus and taxi service yes
