If you have a coach ticket, inquire how to purchase a "lounge pass" with Amtrak points for Chicago's Union station. Also I believe you can store bags for a fee, but can't remember where! 😕 I remembered, there are lockers at the coach lounge, baggage claim, and Red Caps will store also for a fee!
Also food and hot showers too
You can pay a small fee to be able to go in the lounge if you're in coach. And then you can store it there
20.00 for the least expensive. Well worth it! Very comfortable and you get to board train before other coach passengers. Snacks.
It was $25 last year when we were there. I don't think it would be much more now. It is well worth paying for, it is very comfortable.
I see! How small is this fee?
