You could start here:

Pretty much every airport in the world has a website with transport information on it. Amtrak also has a website with station information.

@wtm003

Thank you

also if you know can you say me i can spend my time at train station for night.

There is a beautiful hotel in the train station which you can see at thecrawfordhotel.com

If you want to know if you can sleep in the train station? The station has dozens of soft, comfy chairs and couches. I dont know if the station stays open all night but if they do I think you will be very comfortable.

wtm003 Jun 17th, 2015 08:03 AM

Send an email to [email protected] to ask if the station is open overnight for train passengers.

I remember your thread when you posted about the possibility to come to Colorado and work at the Fraser Safeway. I'm glad you got the job!

SkyRide is your best bet from the airport to Union Station.

Where are you staying the night? Are you going to wait at Union Station overnight? I guess that could work. You'd have water and bathrooms. And food when the stores are open. Plus comfy seating. It could be worse.

Hknkrhnn Jun 18th, 2015 04:26 AM

hi to you Tabernash2 :D

i think you mean that union station is open to wait for night..this is so good for me.

Lastly, may i ask that.. where i can find Skyride bus!

It always helps to go to the source. According to Amtrak, Denver station CLOSES for the night at 8:15pm.

Hknkrhnn Jun 18th, 2015 04:43 AM

fuckk.. i think i have to wait at the airport until morning.. ok, what can i do, there is free wi-fi or socket to charge my telephone battery.

maybe somebody want to join me while i was waiting to spend my time.. :D

Does not sound like a good place to spend the night. But at least it appears it will be open.

Hknkrhnn Jun 18th, 2015 05:08 AM

yes, i know that web site and i read that information but still i have to stay there.. god bless me :D

wtm003 Jun 18th, 2015 05:14 AM

The Skyride is the info I linked above.

<<It always helps to go to the source. According to Amtrak, Denver station CLOSES for the night at 8:15pm.>>

Thursdaysd are you familiar with Union Station in Denver?

Amtrak is part of the Union Station complex which includes shopping and dining with at least one bar open until 2 am located in the same area as the Amtrak waiting benches. Still, with the number of homeless in the area, I don't know if a stay after 2 am would be allowed.

LMAO - good thing OP's typing [or spelling] isn't perfect or he'd have been bounced!

No f bombs allowed! hahahha

thursdaysd Jun 18th, 2015 05:28 AM

"I don't know if a stay after 2 am would be allowed."

Or wise. Personally, I'd opt for the airport. Did that at Vancouver a few years back when my flight landed well after midnight, spent the time until dawn in the one open coffee shop, with wi-fi.

wtm003 Jun 18th, 2015 05:37 AM

I'd probably just stay at the airport too, although I don't think there is even a coffee shop open overnight at DIA. I have a 5:30 am flight coming up and I won't be able to get a cup of coffee before I leave. Supposedly, there is wi-fi at DIA but I've never been able to access it for some reason. Either way the overnight options aren't great.
