We wanted to ride Amtrak from Pittsburgh to Cumberland, so we booked well in advance.

Amtrak cancelled our trip and didn't have any feasible alternatives, since we had already reserved all of our hotels.

We rented a minivan one way to Cumberland. For two people, it ended up costing about the same as Amtrak without any of the Amtrak drama and uncertainty.

We were also able to drive the rental on errands and see some things between PGH and Cumberland that we would not have otherwise.

I highly recommend renting a minivan over trying to take Amtrak.
