Because I have a pretty generous voucher from a trip gone awry last spring, I decided I would use it towards traveling First Class in Acela from Boston to NYP this December. I have booked and thought I’d opt for a single seat if possible and looked at the seating map. But many of the seats, both single and double, appear to be across from each other with a table in between, quite common in European trains. I’d rather have someone next to me that be facing someone I don’t know. 11D appears not to have a table in front of it, and while I prefer to ride forward, it isn’t a deal breaker. Has anyone here ridden on one of these trains who might advise me? Thanks very much!
 
I frequently ride this route. You'll find both options you describe there, all pretty clearly represented on the seatmap. I was in 11F recently, that row is what you want.
