    A look at Japanese sleeper trains

    Wondering if it would be a new version of Amtrak for that in here- no bed sheet, carpet floor, no menu/cafeteria, etc?  At least the crew is awesome cleaning up and shower (well, fee is required)!

    Amtrak Crew Base Question

    Diners and coach/sleepers crew are usually in end point stations such as Chicago, Seattle, Los Angeles, etc.  Engineers and conductors are all over where Amtrak serves, usually about 6 to 10 hours apart on a route.

    Out of curiosity, which one if the car is full, has the most profit- sleeper (after paying for meals) or coach?

    Southwest Limited (Southwest Chief) 15 hours late why?

    I've seen it before with heavy downpour where I used to live in NM. We got about 3" of rain in half hour. I've heard one place got 9" in 3 hours. One trucker had to walk on standing water over road to make sure it's not too deep for his truck to drive over.

    Menu Capitol Limited?

    Yup, it's a new menu for some routes such as Capital Limited and LSL. I believe you have 3 choices for dinner and only one choice for breakfast. It's on the rumor that it may expanding to other routes. Keep writing to your Congress Representatives about it.

    Amtrak Siemens Charger locomotive (SC44, ALC42, ALC42E) (2015 - 1Q 2024)

    Are Chargers more fuel efficient than P42s if pulling the same numbers of cars and tonnages? If so, how much efficient?

    Sleeper Prices- WOW!!

    Other way is to use Amsnag to check on prices within the date you've requested. Also you can register for fare alert if the price is lower.
