Surprisingly clean and calm here. The public washrooms were very clean. There is very little help here. So please know what you need to do before arriving. Amtrak, Bolt Bus, Greyhound to Seattle and VIA rail are here amongst other passenger carriers. No fruits, vegetables and especially weed if you are going into the USA to avoid cross-border hassles.

The Pacific Central Station is a nice old building especially at night, but there are some homeless people inside and the company Via Rail is so-so. We got on in the train one hour late and it was too slow to travel with them because merchandise trains have the priority. I took the train from Vancouver to Toronto, then from Toronto to Montreal and I needed four days and six hours to arrive up to my final destination. If you want to see the Rocky Mountains I advise you to take the train from Vancouver to Jasper Alberta then stay two days at Jasper and finally come back at Vancouver because after Jasper there is almost nothing interesting to see.

The station itself has an oldworldy charm that is kind of neat. Try not to be put off by the homeless directly out the front as it is honestly an unavoidable fact if Vancouver and they do tend to keep to their own if not aggravated. The boarding process is quite manual, the trains conductor calling instructions as loudly and nicely as possible without any kind of microphone. Try to have a valid ESTA before arriving as it’s not considered essential but helps speed up the process when clearing customs before boarding a USA bound departure. The ride to Seattle and back is enjoyable as we love train rides, and the scenery at various stages in the day is beautiful. Food on board is nothing special but not horrible either, and not overly expensive. Does the job considering not much nearby is open if you’re taking an early departure. Except for Tim Hortons across the street. Overall staff were friendly and made the journey enjoyable.

We lost our backpacks on the bench and found them the next day! Thanks for security team! And the baggage claim desk was also very helpful.

Nothing open early. We arrived at 5:40 am for the 6:35 am departure of the Amtrak Cascades. No services were open in the station prior to our boarding. Fortunately, we had planned ahead with purchased breakfast items and were able to get beverages on board the train. Since we had business class tickets, we went through customs quickly and without a wait. The coach class line already was long and moved slowly. There is no Amtrak lounge at the station.
