I took one more look at www.amtrak.com and found the train at the rate
you mentioned. What i didn't understood is wheter i need to book to get
this price or if it's the same price even i i buy the ticket directly at
the station the day i plan to go. Would you be so nice and advice on this?


The farther in advance you buy, the lower your fare will be.

How does it work on trains in US? I know buses are always guaranteed
to have a sit for you, no matter how many people would like to go. How
about trains? Never been on one in US so every tip is of value...


Amtrak does not work like the bus; they will not put on an extra coach car if an
unusually large number of people want to travel. If you buy a ticket on a train
which requires reservations, you will have a seat, and no tickets will be sold
after all seats are full. If you buy a ticket on a train which does not require
reservations, you may end up standing.
