Let's see how long it takes to have the 4 official Fest trips (2 on #19, 2 on #58) posted to our AGR accounts. So far, I only have the ATL-NOL portion of #19, which I received today (Wednesday). Not happy that they dropped the cents from my $103.90 fare, which cost me 2 AGR points. Depending on the number and your status (select or select plus), that could also cost you 1 or more bonus points. They used to round UP to the next dollar, even if your cents were as low as $.05 or $.10 . Remember that even if you used AGR points to "pay" for your trip segment, there should still be an entry of 0 points on your account. And I'm probably the only one, but I also have 2 Thruway Train segments, which I have to wait to August 15th to seek the points for by phone, since they make you wait 3 weeks to report missing mileage even though I know now it won't be there. So I won't be "whole" for a while.

So far, only ATL-NOL for me too... But that's ok, that's the only segment I needed to post automatically since I'm missing half the numbers on my ticket stub cuz the lower left corner got ripped off.

Technicalities suck and legal name changes are a mess after it happens.

While your mileage may vary, there have been recent reports that AGR has stopped paying points on the NJT AC Thruway service.

By all means give it a try, but don't be surprised if they say no.
Alan,

Take care and take trains!

Seems like they even took the trouble to make sure that those trains were given appropriate numbers so as to be excluded, no?

MEM-CHI on #58 posted today (0 points for me on redemption) Also the 6 of us who stayed at the Doubletree Memphis, the 500 AGR points were credited.

Not official Fest trips, and big goose eggs for me anyhow since it's all redemption, but for those who were on the Capitol Limited and the ill fated connecting Regional, the trips were acknowledged this morning. I assume that those who were on the Cardinal and Lake Shore Limited should see theirs as well. BTW since our tickets were collected on Regional 132 before it died before New Carrollton, we get credit for Train 132 to our destinations even though the vast majority of the trip took place on 126.
