I tried accessing it today and got several HUGE pages with oversized pictures and no way to make the screen size smaller, plus a section called "Sign in Create an Account Updated Terms and Conditions," with a bunch of boxes to fill in, security questions, password info, and other things. It looks like something to do with Facebook or Twitter, neither of which I am involved in.

Where is the old web site that showed updated schedules of all routes, lists of stations, etc.?

I tried it, just now, and the website seems to be working as usual.

I still can't get a decent web site with Internet Explorer. but the AMTRAK web site opens fine with Google Chrome.

Rich, I get the feeling that IE11 is "the end of the line" for Explorer. When ringing up the site by IE, I get gibberish as well, but doing so on Edge, all is well, and as Richard would say "fiver".

Further I cannot get www.gobrightline.com or WSJ Customer Service anymore with IE.

W8 and higher supports Edge, and is much more of a targeted ad platform than has been IE.
