[quote user="Midnight Railroader"][quote user="Jetrock"] <p>My favorite metaphor for Amtrak sleeper travel is that it's kind of like being a cat: your routine consists of sleeping, eating, bathing, and staring out the window. It's pretty nice.</p><p>[/quote]I also agree with the comparison that--in Coach--it's like camping, indoors, at 50 mph.[/quote]</p><p>If you can camp you can go anywhere on an Amtrak Train. Sleeper or coach it doesn't matter. My wife and I have a trip planed to take the "Lake shore"to the "Builder" to the Coast Starlight. Back east on the Zephyr and the Capitol Limited. We are going 1st Class all the way. If you can afford it, it is the only way to go. We are leaving from NY on Aug the 2ond. and we are getting Antsy counting days. Take the sleeper from NY to Chi it will be more restful.<span class="smiley">[zzz]</span> </p><p> </p>
