Amtrak’s Red Cap Baggage Assistance

Amtrak Red Cap Baggage Assistance

In select stations, Amtrak offers free Red Cap service to assist passengers with baggage to and from their trains. But this dedicated Red Cap Team of Amtrak members does more than just carry luggage. They help passengers with disabilities, senior citizens, and large groups navigate the station, they operate motorized vehicles (to carry your 50lbs bags), wheelchair lifts, ramps, and provide general assistance to visitors of the station, including bathroom locations. Thank you for the tip Nate.
