Riding coast to coast often until the COVID thing hit.......I have ridden lots of rough track. One trip on the SWC was really rough in the New Mexico region. While I was in the dining car we had LOTS of swaying and loud rail noise....but most just ignored it. Then we had the hardest bump, sway...

What did CNN say about WSS and the Greenbrier??? I live within minutes......around here the two are looked at as one.....the Greenbrier is surrounded by WSS. Thx

There is a huge population that assume 'iphone' is like 'Jell-o'.....a wireless device is a iphone......work with the public for a while and see for yourself. I still do not see the bias toward iphone weather it's today or in 10 years. Chances are in 10 years they may be unknown to the general...

Believe it or not.....iphones are NOT 100% of the market. Coming from a IT background going back to 1975 I will not own or even permit Apple products in my house.......I know iphone users think there are no other phones.....but there are.others...... So.....again, I am SOL???

So your phone does not with Applepay????

One complete row of 4 was hard to save....thinking more like the 2+2+2 and maybe even skip a row.....

I have never been on the CZ but every other train I have ridden seating was arranged by conductor/car captain. They will know you are getting on and how many.....if the Amtrak employee is any good they will do their best to seat you near......but you are talking 3 rows of seats....

You'll have no issues......I have mobility issues and they always handle me fine.

Should be no issue as long as someone will not mind upper bed.

My 2016 trip on SWC East I got the family room. It is big compared to a roomette but I am so use to the little room I still prefer it. The family room does seem to be a bit noisier than upstairs.....and it was bumpy....but this was the last trip over rails now replaced around Raton.

The random seating of the diner is a blessing and a curse. I travel alone 99% of the time so I always sit with strangers. I tell the good stories in my travel log. Those are easy. One trip I was seated with a older couple, looked like normal mid America folks. Unfortunately the husband had a...

Thanks for the info.....

Scary stuff.....I was on SWC last month.......

I just saw that 3 & 4 went from minutes late to almost 5 hours....thought I'd check here.....thanks for the info. I ride the SWC and like to keep up with it.

In my roomette on the SWC Chicago to LA I find I take a nap just fine sitting up seat in recline position. :P

SWC frpm Chicago to LA or Fullerton and back.

#4(26) 9 hours + late at Lamar......just seem the SWC can't get a break. I know track work seemed complete on my ride on #4(10) but we did sit in the Raton tunnel for 30 minutes due to signal work. Is fixing this a priority??? Or late just SOP now.

Slow going for all SWC of late..... #4 (26) 4 hours late at Kingman AZ not good
