Passenger Trains > Timetables - On Line availabilityDate: 09/26/16 16:37 Timetables - On Line availability Author: Gene_CA New iOS and improved Amtrak site does not seem to allow easy access to full PDF timetables. Using my old desktop with Windows 7 seems to work OK. Why do we keep improving things till they are almost useless. It took me almost a month to realize the iOS was a part of the problem.

Amtrak has one, and it loads the full desktop version, including links to the .pdf schedules.
Barry Draper Date: 09/26/16 20:09 Re: Timetables - On Line availability Author: GenePoon Using Firefox on Android, the menu that drops down at the upper right corner includes "Request Desktop Site"
which is useful when a mobile site doesn't include a link to the desktop version...but Amtrak.com does.

Then navigate to Schedules. The PDF timetable for the route you click (or the system timetable) will open right in Safari.

That's the 'cost' one has to bear as not all technology moves as fast as the 'leader'. Some take over a year to be compatible with new versions of an operating system.
