Making it easier on nursing mothers, Amtrak adds lactation suites at five major train stations. Four will be open in time for summer’s busy travel season.

Suites will be added to stations in Washington, D.C., Baltimore, Philadelphia and Chicago in the coming weeks. The fifth will be added in New York Penn Station early this fall.

The suites include comfortable benches, a fold-down table, an electrical outlet for plugging in a breast pump and a door that can be locked for privacy. The Mamava-designed pods will be ADA-compliant.

“These new lactation suites demonstrate Amtrak’s ongoing commitment to better accommodate the needs of our customers and their families while traveling with us,” David Handera, vice president, Amtrak, said in a statement. “It is important for Amtrak to provide mothers with a secure, clean, dignified and private space.”

“We’re thrilled to support breastfeeding mamas at Union Station,” Sascha Mayer, CEO, Mamava, said. “We believe that all mamas deserve a comfortable place to use a breast pump or breastfeed distraction-free — anywhere, anytime. Mamava pods provide flexibility for facilities and easy access for moms.”

Mothers will now also be able to breastfeed and express breast milk while in Amtrak stations and on trains. Amtrak also introduced a New Parental Leave Income Replacement Policy for employees, allowing parents to receive up to 12 weeks of wage replacement benefits following the birth of a child.
