[QUOTE]Originally posted by sbalax: [QB] We are home after arriving in SBA on an EARLY Coast Starlight. Yes, we were bussed from SEA to PDX. It was a nice, comfortable bus and they gave us a box lunch (Subway sandwich, chips, water and a very good chocolate chip cookie) to eat along the way. We stopped twice -- Chehalis and Kelso -- to drop/pick up passengers and arrived in Portland faster than the train would have. We headed to the Metropolitan Lounge which quickly was at capacity. It took about an hour before they had the train put together and we were able to board. I'll do a trip report later. We had a good time and, for the first time, ate all of our meals including a very quick dinner tonight, in the Parlour Car. The food quality and presentation were very good but I have to say that the Flatiron "steak" is not like any steak I've ever seen. It is more like pot roast. The Lamb Shanks last night were very good. And now I am more certain than ever that they are the "Cuisine Solutions" product that is sold at COSTCO. Nanette, the PPC attendant, said that the sauce was "doctored" by the cook. Apparently this is now frowned upon by management. Frank in dark and cool SBA [/QB][/QUOTE]
