Yup. Also the improved Cafe offerings with Boar's Head etc. Everyone that I have talked to among my NJ/NY acquaintances that ride Amtrak pretty regularly on the Corridor seem to love that and feel Amtrak has improved service on the NEC in the last two years.The Am1 interior refresh is a .pretty significant plus in regional service. A similar project is set for Acela to refresh them until their already ordered replacements show up.
Oh that’s good. I did forget about the interior refresh for the amfleet I’s.
Top is Business Class, bottom is Coach. I figured that out even before I noticed the “Business Class” sign in the top one.Business class from a different angle. Which one is business though?View attachment 12681

The AM-I refresh was arguably the best thing to happen to Amtrak’s onboard experience in a long time. I eagerly await the AM-II refresh.Oh that’s good. I did forget about the interior refresh for the amfleet I’s.
I would possibly rephrase that. h34r:My point is the difference is minimal. Even asking my roommate, his justification was to pick the white one cause white = clean = higher class.
You get more than that in BC on the NE Regional.Re-branding coach with a can of soda doesn't mean much when we are talking one of Amtrak's premier routes, being the Northeast Regional.
Not much more. Isn't it really just some curtains, a little bit of extra legroom, and a foot rest?You get more than that in BC on the NE Regional.
You get curtains, nearly as much legroom as an Amfleet II, foot rests, and a complimentary soft beverage. You also get some bonus AGR points and a better cancellation policy. I personally don't think it's worth the extra cost, but it's definitely more than just a "can of soda".Not much more.

Yeah, how does that work with BC vs coach?More importantly you get bonus AGR TQPs. That is what primarily causes me to spring for BC wherever I can.
