Normal
The way I see it, the different classes are already labeled, sleeper, first (Acela), business, and coach. I don’t view people any differently for whichever class they choose or are able to book. Nor do I consider there to be much of a need to re-label the classes just to fit a different labeling scheme. I have been fortunate enough in the past couple of years to have the option to make the choice that best suits me. That being said, I also do my due diligence and watch for the fares available per accommodation and make my booking choice for what I see as reasonable. Things like sleeping on an actual bed, privacy to run my scanner, and being able to bring alcoholic beverages are important to me. Shoot, my wife and I even booked a roomette from Oakland to San Luis Obispo because the upcharge was under $100 and we got breakfast and lunch included. But I have also ridden coach, (although not overnight) and really enjoyed it.To sum it up, whichever choice that’s made, it’s always an adventure on Amtrak.
