[QUOTE]Originally posted by Railroad Bob: [QB] [QUOTE]Originally posted by Mr. Toy: [qb] I remember when the sleepers were always at the rear. But it really doesn't make sense to put them there if Amtrak is (as it should be) using part of the Transition Sleepers for revenue space. Why would a coach attendant, who is already responsible for one and a half to two cars with up to 70 people each, want to take on the added responsibility of half a sleeper? [/qb][/QUOTE]Right you are, Mr. Toy. The move is controversial among the regularly-assigned attendants of the Southwest Chief; possibly other trains as well. One senior coach TA told me he will bid to the coach job that is next to the lounge, in order not to be the guy who has to service the new "revenue dorm." So there will be a flurry of bidding and bumping when all this happens (if it hasn't already.) [/QB][/QUOTE]
