[QUOTE]Originally posted by Joe Urda: [QB] I'm reading with interest the above regarding proper dress aboard the train. Many times I have proven that if you are dressed properly you get more repsect and attention and that goes for train travel too. The wife an I made a trip recently via Amtrak. We were in the sleeper section. Got on in Philly in time for supper and as usual I dressed in a blazer with pinstripped shirt. I did not wear a tie which is rare for me. My wife was dressed in a very sharpe blouse and slacks. I realize that it was easier for us to dress in the sleeper than those in coach, but just the dress alone is enough to make a huge difference in being waited on. Even in the lounge car you could tell that you did get a bit more attention if you were dressed neatly. Breakfast and lunch we both dressed very neatly and watching others in baggy pants and wrinkled sweat shirts did not get the same kind of service. Maybe the staff looked at us as potential big tippers though. It does make a difference no matter where you are, so if you can, dress sharpe. It does pay off in the end. That's my take on it.
