First Time Amtrak Rider

I am thinking about doing the empire builder run on Amtrak, and have traveled by train before but not Amtrak. What should I expect? At stops can you get off and look around or is it basically board in Chicago and depart in Portland and you take in the views as you go?

Mainly looking for thoughts from regular Amtrak riders or ones who have taken the empire builder or other long run train rides?
