IS TRAIN TRAVEL A WHEELCHAIR-FRIENDLY

ALTERNATIVE TO FLYING OR DRIVING?


Even though the trip takes longer, Vanessa O’Connell says train travel takes the stress and hassles out of her regular trip.

She notes that Amtrak’s Red Caps help with her luggage on board the train and deliver a meal to her room.

“As a person with a disability, you have an accessible restroom right in your room,” Vanessa says.

“On a plane, the restrooms are typically extremely small.

Many people that I know must dehydrate for a few days before flying, as the restroom is not accessible or large enough to accommodate them.”
