Checked Baggage (luggage) discussion

[Eric in East County]

Normal allowance is two bags of 50 lbs. each.

On our trip last month, my three carry-on bags (a rolling laptop case, a camera bag which also had my scanner and GPS device, plus a canvas carry-on bag with clothing, toilet kit, gaffer's tape, etc. came to a total weight of 50 lbs. for all three items.

How to take a larger suitcase on the NorthEast Regional out of Boston:

Since Boston no longer has any checked baggage, is there any baggage space on the cars for a larger then carryon suitcase?

Since Amtrak stopped checked baggage out of Boston on any Train it sure has made it difficult to travel,

Yes, the coach cars on the NER have luggage racks on one end. (it varies which way the car is oriented) that can fit larger luggage.
