    Sleeper accommodation discussion

    Yes, it certainly is, but you’ll never be able to truly tell unless you do so yourself. Don’t rely on the subjective opinions of others, whose thought process and circumstances may be different from your own.

    Crescent discussion

    They did take Norfolk Southern to arbitration and the current northbound schedule is a result of that legal action.

    30th Anniversary of Amtrak's worst accident

    Yes, the Sunset Limited had just been extended to Miami in April of the year. I rode it from Miami to LA and back that summer.

    Albuquerque Hotel— Shuttle to Amtrak Station?

    I get it. I’m simply answering the other poster’s question, from the hotel’s point of view.

    Albuquerque Hotel— Shuttle to Amtrak Station?

    Sometimes one gets lucky and a shuttle can be sent. But that might depend on the proximity of the Amtrak station to the hotel, if someone can figure out how to get there, and what the hotel’s policy is about pickups at what they might consider an alternate location.

    Because few people take the train as compared with airplanes.

    Why don't more "High Profile" people ride the train?

    Only during the last few years of her life. Not in the sixties.

    Why don't more "High Profile" people ride the train?

    Ten years ago I rode the Crescent from Atlanta to New York (which I still do), and Ted Turner had a bedroom in my sleeper car. He also ate in the dining car.

    The effect of the potential rail strike on Amtrak

    I’m guessing that it won’t be until after Thanksgiving. I’ve had tickets on the Crescent for months.

    The effect of the potential rail strike on Amtrak

    While I agree that december is more likely, the sixty-day cooling off period is up on 16 November, so theoretically the strike could occur anytime after that. https://www.cnbc.com/2022/10/26/second-railroad-union-votes-down-deal-needed-to-avert-strike.html

    Purchasing 2 adjoining bedrooms for themselves?

    Hardly a realistic plan, in most instances.

    Purchasing 2 adjoining bedrooms for themselves?

    To which private car do you refer?
