Smoking and Non-Smoking Policies
All Amtrak trains, Thruway buses and stations are entirely non-smoking except for the Auto Train.
-
Electronic smoking devices, such as electronic cigarettes, are not allowed in any area on trains, on Thruway services, in stations or in any other location where smoking is prohibited.
-
On Auto Train, passengers may smoke only in a designated, enclosed smoking room located on the lower level of the Lounge Car. Smoking is not permitted in bedrooms or bathrooms.
-
If such a car is not on a train due to an equipment substitution, then that entire train is non-smoking.
Passengers may smoke on station platforms at longer stops as announced by train crews.
-
Passengers must remain next to the train, ready to re-board immediately upon hearing the sound of the locomotive horn and the "all aboard" calls from Amtrak employees.
-
Smoking stops may be shortened or eliminated entirely if the train is operating late.
-
State or local laws may prohibit smoking on station platforms.
