Today's Seattle Times had this article on a reporter's trip from LA to Seattle on the Coast Starlight: https://www.seattletimes.com/life/t...he-coast-starlight-train-from-l-a-to-seattle/
The article (not paywalled unless you've already used your monthly allotment of free articles) is pretty detailed and, in my opinion, fair. She is largely positive--though negative on the quality of the breakfast, which I can't argue with, and she does note that she couldn't get much sleep in coach. The pricing she gives at the end of the article is way-off, but other than that, I think reporting like this is rare.
