[QUOTE]Originally posted by palmland: [QB] Richard, you are correct, at least in Amtrak's early days. One of the requirements for Amtrak on A day was a sleeper on overnight trips. I'm not sure when or if that requirement was changed, but it apparently is no longer in effect, or else just ignored. Train 66/67 makes a 14 hr, 20 min. overnight trip from Boston to Newport News. It originally ran as the Night Owl to Washington, with a sleeper. It was then extended to Newport News and enhanced with a specialized cafe car and sleeper renamed the Twilight Shoreliner. More recently, it's just another NEC train but does have a combination cafe/BC car. [/QB][/QUOTE]
