Question

How long is an Amtrak trip from LA to Salt lake city,Utah?

Answer 1

amtrak. com

probably about 24-26 hours.

it took me 41 hours to go 1750 miles form portland oregon to winona minnesota.

however i bet it woiuld be cheaper than flying.

EDIt- yeah i just went to amtrak.com. yes, you do have to transfer three times, and one of them is a bus.

It costs $238 round trip, yeah I'd dsee how much a plane is on this one,

keep this in mind plane fares are cheapest 21 days in advance and also when you fly on monday, tuesday or wednseday

Answer 2

24 hours.  No, seriously.  You take the bus from LA to Bakersfield (3 hours), a train to Stockton (4 hours), another bus to Sacramento (1 hour), then another train to Salt Lake City (16 hours).  

Answer 3

Amtrak has to be a horrible way to travel. The poster that said 24 hrs. is quoting from Amtrak's website. It would take a miracle for Amtrak to go from LA to SLC in 24 hrs. My daughter took Amtrak from Reno, Nev. to Emeryville, Ca. It takes 3+hrs. by car. It took Amtrak 13 hrs. Amtrak owns NO track, they rent track from the freight companies, the freight trains have the right of way. If a freight train needs the track Amtrak waits on a siding while the freight goes by. This may happen 0 times or many times on any given trip.
