Train Attendant
I took a trip from Buffalo to Chicago to New Orleans in the spring. The first part of my trip was boarding the train in Buffalo for a midnight departure. Train originated in New York and was a few hours late
due to an accident on the tracks. The problem was when the twenty or so passengers boarded it was chaos. All the seats were full or single passengers were spread out sleeping on both seats. We were
standing in the aisle as the train left. Eventualy the conducter showed up and shouted for people to give up a seat. As you can imagine when I sat down the guy was not to happy and grumpy having been
woken up and told to move over. Things got better as passengers dissenbarked as we reached other stations. On the whole not a good ride to Chigago.
In contrast the ride from Chicago to New Orleans was just great, I must add though that I booked an cabin. Food was great and staff was proffesional.
