Hi everyone,
I’m traveling with LSL from Chi-NYC. As of now, I’m taking the LSL and will be in Coach the whole trip. A Roomette is way too expensive for the full ride.
However, I was thinking about taking the train from CHI-Buffalo in a roomette (I have a bad back and laying down for even half the trip would be so helpful) and then from Buffalo-NYC in coach. The roomette would be pretty affordable for the Buffalo leg if I booked it for LSL 448. The LSL 48 price, however, is insane. And then I would get another ticket for the LSL 48 from Buffalo-NYC in Coach. Sorry this is so long-winded.
Now to my actual question (and I am sorry if this is so obvious, I have never traveled long distance with Amtrak): if I do this, is it easy to switch in Buffalo from the 448 part of the train to the Coach section of the 48 part of the train? Will I have to leave the train and get back on or can I just walk through the train to get to Coach?
I appreciate all of your help.
