Question for a new friend taking the train from NO to LA, her first time and I told her to get a sleeper but she waited and said when she went to purchase her ticket a few months later the price was too much for her, Now she says she is in coach,alone,and thr agent told her she would have to keep her baggage with her because there is no where to put her baggage except overhead, Is this so. Plus she told her get there early because to get a seat,it's first come ,first served. I have never taken this route but,now I'm kinda wondering do I want to.Also she was going to get off ion Ontario,Ca. but was told it was unmanned and it would stop there at 3 in the morning so she is going on into LA. Help me help her. Anyone did this route, tell me good and bad. Thanks
