[QUOTE]Originally posted by Charles Reuben: [QB] Actually, anything beats sitting in coach for an extended period. True, there is something austere about the roommettes but they are private and you get to lay on your back, flat. The thing that made me respond to your posting (after not having posted for a long, long time) is the way you are romantizing about a situation which is clearly not romantic. OK, bring you own food if you like (I used to cook up dehydrated food in the now-defunct smoking lounge). Or romanticize about seats that lost their cush 30 years ago. Or complain about the price of food in the dining car and extoll the virtues of the cafe car. But please don't try to sell this to newbies because, to be totally frank, it kinda s u c k s . Personally, I'm glad you posted because you definitely brought back some not-so-fond memories of travelling in coach. And thanks to you, I plan to take a sleeper from LA to Chicago and guess what! It won't cost me a penny coz I'm gonna cash in on 20,000 Amtrak points I just happen to have lying around (from my Amtrak Credit Card). In the meantime, enjoy your coach accommodations. Amtrak definitely needs more people around with your fortitude. [/QB][/QUOTE]
