At $3,000, this is a bit too rich for me. Also, you have to enter a lottery to even get a chance at a ticket. Entry to the lottery has a deadline of August 21, which is just in a couple of days. This is for a room in the Pullman car Pacific Home. They're also doing a fundraising auction for the two rooms in Hickory Creek. It won't be an exact recreation of the 20th Century Limited, as the cars will be stuck on the rear end of Amtrak's Lakeshore Limited, and thus will be making the stops that the 20th Century never made and will have typical Amtrak on-time performance as compared to that of the 20th Century. In other words, the train will be held up for freight trains. :(

Still it would be nice to be sitting in the lounge sipping cocktails as you wait for an hour in the siding for CSX 🙂
