There was a post for this many years ago, but I was wondering if anyone has recent experience with Amtrak overbooking, specifically in coach. What about the 1/2 BC cars used on Midwest, Empire, Downeaster, etc?. I am taking a trip next weekend (Columbus Day) and am boarding “up the line” and expecting fully packed trains.
Does Amtrak Overbook?

No, they do not overbook. That said equipment may not be available as planned.
However seat assignments are not available other than Acela. So find a seat can be issue.

No, they do not overbook. Especially in BC.
