An updated bucket chart just got posted here: https://www.amtraktrains.com/threads/long-distance-train-coach-sleeper-fares-buckets.77062/page-7 Some fares only went up $1 but most had hefty increases. Note that CL and SS fares are valid only through about 8 Nov 2024. Legibility's not the...

Uh. . . why not ask Amtrak?

When I do a search for new fares for a train I usually do about 30 searches on different days at one sitting, then wait until Arrow allows more searches. Prompted by your post, I just completed the search for both Silvers and both Lake Shores and only needed to make estimates for two fares not...
