Why can't I find trains between my stations ?

So I live in Jacksonville Florida and want to make a trip out to Denver Colorado. I have tried putting in the two stations but it won't give me a route. When I put the individual routes in I can find trains that take me from jax to den so why won't it show them to me as one trip. Jax to DC arrives at 2pm,  dc to Chicago , Chicago to Denver  trip Date is May 27th

    Nobody knows that.  Ask AMTRAC.  Probably two different trains.

    For complex routings, the website may not allow you to book it, as you found out.  You will have to call Amtrak's reservation line at 1-800-USARAIL and speak to an agent.  The agent should be able to do it for you.

    Amtrak long-distance trains are mostly running only three times per week but they may be restored to daily soon.  That may be part of the issue.

    I would see when the Denver to Chicago train runs and then see if it connects easily with the Chicago-Northeast and Northeast-Florida trains.  (There are multiple trains between Chicago and NY/DC and the NY/DC to Florida trains might run daily.)

    There is NO straight trip.  Book the individual trips and pray it makes it on time.

    So book the trip piecemeal.
