I will be taking a Wednesday trip from Rochester to Boston on the Lake Shore Limited in May. I'm going back and forth between coach and business class and was curious if anyone had insights on what the volume of ridership is generally like for this segment.
Judging by 2019 data, it seems like the majority of traffic on the LSL is Chicago-western/central NY and western/central NY to NYC. But of course things could be different now in the pandemic era.

Essentially if I have a decent chance of two coach seats to myself I'd prefer not to spend the extra money, as I'm already paying for two business overnights on my trip. Thanks for the help!
