My husband and I are taking the 51 Cardinal from Wash-Chicago at the beginning of October. We will have folding bikes with us that we have taken on the SW Chief from Albuquerque-Los Angeles. There was no problem storing them in the sleeper car in the baggage area on the lower level. I just found out that Amtrak does not have that baggage area on the 51 Cardinal Viewliner sleeper car. Our folding bikes are allowed on Amtrak as a carry-on bag. The dimensions of our full size folding bags are 38"x28'x12" each, which is under the dimensions allowed for carry on folding bikes. I am wondering if we should change our reservation to the Capitol Ltd from Wash-Chi because of the available baggage area on the Superliner? Any advice on experienced train travelers is appreciated!
