Unless they are doing two separate routes, they'll have to decide between going through Macon or going through Athens and Augusta. The former would be a shorter distance but the latter would serve a larger population.

That was the case when I rode the Meteor last month

If they only use accessible coaches on those trains it seems feasible. For example: Train 1: Other sleepers - Accessible sleeper - accessible cafe - accessible coach Train 2: Accessible coach - accessible diner - accessible sleeper - other sleepers would combine at the coaches and still maintain...

I counted it because along with the ADA room there are additional rooms below but if you can argue the car is "used primarily for non-revenue purposes" you are right.

Based on this from Amtrak's proposal They need four accessible rooms because there are four sleeper cars counting the lounge but not the utility car. Similarly, the single level design needs three because there are total of three sleeper cars not counting the utility car.

Looks like they are considering three different options for Atlanta - Jacksonville: Atlanta-Augusta-Savannah-Jacksonville Atlanta-Macon-Savannah-Jacksonville Atlanta-Macon-Jesup-Jacksonville With the last one being used for the example route on page 110.

Looks like both feeds still work on this page: Service Alerts & Notices | Amtrak

There was a thread here recently where the OP was in refreshed roomette. Managed to find it: https://www.amtraktrains.com/threads/eaglette-and-cardinal-dallas-to-dc.84905/

Isn't it what this NOFO is about? Federal Register :: Request Access

A feasibility study and a capacity study were done in the last few years. Both found on the I-20 Corridor Council website here: https://www.i-20corridorcouncil.com/feasibility-study https://www.i-20corridorcouncil.com/capacity-study So they shouldn't be starting from scratch, at least.

I would hope it'd be the cafe car going to New Orleans and they add the dining car back which will go to Dallas-Fort Worth, but heh, we'll see. Taking a nod from the "adding frequency to LD services thread" I think they should also consider running the routes independently. Then there would be...

The prices are demand based, so that's indicative of higher demand for the train that takes less time. Makes sense to me.

The Crescent, as currently travel between Atlanta and cities in South and North Carolina involves middle of the night departures and/or arrivals. Though the proposed Atlanta to Charlotte (or better yet, Raleigh) corridor would also fix that.

I like the attitude.

Curiously, I managed to find a page, though it's not listed in the menu: https://www.amtrak.com/business-travel-roomette

Amtrak tweeted this yesterday. So yeah looks like the announcement is supposed to be today and some mistake led to the page going live yesterday.

As someone who lives near Macon, it would make me very happy, but... ...yeah. Somehow all these legislators drive to Atlanta and apparently say "yes, this is good. This is how things should be" instead of supporting trains. The counties from Atlanta to Macon made a submission to the Corridor...

Yeah. "Savings" are as much a psychological thing as a practical thing. See the results of JCPenney's "Fair and Square Pricing."

Yeah, though I'm curious what will come out of the long distance service restoration study they are doing. If I'm not mistaken the Connects Us plan predates that being a part of the infrastructure act. Back when I went to the University of Florida, that would have been nice as my home was in...
