Why can you not use the electronic cigarette, as far as I know, you can use them virtually anywhere with no damaging effects to anyone NOR is there a smell of tobacco!!!!
Using e-cigs is also strictly prohibited by Amtrak's policy. You may have been lucky in the past, but nothing says you will be in the future. You would likely be warned if you were caught, but they could put you off the train...
Just recently I saw some guy smoking on the platform - I mean right next to a train door as it opened. The assistant conductor came storming out of another door and started yelling at him. I was under the impression that smoking isn't allowed in any area of that station (Emeryville), including outdoors and on the platforms. That doesn't mean people don't do it.Unfortunately it's one of those things where Amtrak crew members aren't everywhere all the time. If someone goes to the rear of a train or downstairs in a vestibule and smokes is a crew member going to see them every time? No. But if someone brings it to the attention of a crew member I'd be shocked if nothing was done about it. The Operating Crew has a lot on their plate, and the TA's similarly can get bogged down. It's like everything else, see something, say something.
