Why This Matters

The Baby Changing on Board Act makes sure that all new Amtrak trains have baby changing tables in their restrooms. This helps families traveling with young children by providing a convenient place to change diapers while on the train.

If you travel with a baby on Amtrak, you will have a designated place to change diapers on the train.
