    8/29/26 was our second trip aboard the Potomac Eagle and it was fabulous again! This time we splurged on Club Service and we were incredibly impressed! I have food allergies (gluten and dairy) that make it challenging to dine out. The chef and staff aboard the Potomac Eagle were phenomenal. I applaud their superior food quality and service. I highly recommend the Potomac Eagle and, giving the staff advance notice, assure those with these allergies that you can trust them to honor your needs.
