Hello from northern California. I just found this site yesterday and already got very helpful information - the National Car Rental place in Flagstaff - great tip - that guy will meet you with the car at 5AM, and the tips about taking a bit of tape for things that jiggle and several more I wrote down but can't remember now. Thanks to all - this is very helpful to me.
In the next few days I will book a ticket for a trip from Petaluma, California to Flagstaff, Az. This involves several AMTRAK buses and the San Joaquin train and the Southwest Chief. I will be aboard the SWC from about 6PM to 5AM. Would you pay the extra for a sleeper or get a coach seat downstairs or just a regular coach seat upstairs? Pros and cons would be great. . Thanks, again, glow
