I'm taking the Autotrain from Sanford, Fl to DC so my question is does the Autotrain have internet or WIFI on this train. Thanks

No DVD rentals on the Auto Train. You'll have to bring your own player & DVD's if you want to watch movies of your own choosing. Amtrak does show a movie in the lounge cars after dark on some TV screens in the car, but you have no choice in what is shown.
Alan,

Take care and take trains!

THEY USED TO HAVE PLACES IN LORTON AND IN SANFORD THAT YO COULD RENT THEM AND THEN TURN THEM IN ON THE OTHER END OF THE TRIP. HOWEVER, I WAS ON A AUTO TRAIN TRIP 2 WEEKS AGO AND DON'T RECALL SEEING THAT LITTLE OFFICE OPEN. I WASN'T REALLY LOOKING THOUGH. I HAVE MY OWN PERSONAL DVD PLAYER I ALWAYS TAKE ALONG. :)

The company that used to rent them went out of business, and the booths in both Auto Train stations (and the conventional Amtrak stations that had them) closed.
