Memphis Central Station

"I'm probably the only person to have this issue. Due to travel reasons I had to arrive at the train station VERY early, (9 1/2 hours). The station doesn't open until 3 p.m, train departs at 10:40 p.m.. There is plenty to do in the area if you want to spend $$, it's 20 degrees outside. The hotel staff was great letting me keep my luggage safe while I explored the area"

"First time here, and I do love it the view"

"I took the train for the 1st time from Memphis to New Orleans and honestly I loved it. I had a private sleeper it was nice, the staff was so friendly and made the plain ride very pleasant. The food was better then I expected actually so I was very happy with my over all experience."

"Perfectly fine train station on the edge of downtown. Wish the City of New Orleans train was a bit nicer, feels like it's not all it used to be."

"2/2017:The train ride was good. I have mobiity issues so I had my meals in my sleeper. The service was ok but the meals were dried out both ways. Dry salmon and dry pot roast. I did not feel the need to send them back since they were included in my fare. I still tipped the conductor for service. I know to be more specific on my next trip. This station is definitely not a person with disabilities friendly and the staff isn't either. Oh well, Amtrak needs to read these reviews. UPDATE: 3/2020 The station has moved to one corner of the building and the rest has be converted into a Hilton hotel. The parking is all jacked up. Amtrak passengers have only 14 spots to park and the other 100 or so is pay$25 a day or valet parking is $30? Anyone travelling by rail from this station better do his or her homework for parking. I did find a parking ramp hidden on buttler and front st. for $10 /day if you're willing to walk a few blocks"
