Thanks for the detailed post. I will forget that "sale" since I am planning a Silver Meteor journey in December and next January and in a Roomette.
 
When I check trips that interest me in those dates, I see no difference. The key words are "may not be available." Good Luck!!
Just curious if you selected a train and proceeded to the next page.

I think it was the last 'super sale' like this one maybe a year ago that I checked out some prices from Windsor Locks to Philadelphia or Washington DC. I didn't see any difference than the 'regular' prices I had been paying. Then I checked the SPECIFIC CITY PAIRS listed, and that worked got the better prices. So, if I want to pay full tilt to/from NYP, for example, I'm golden. I'm still thinking about it.
