How Early Are Sleeping Car Passengers Boarded?

Hi Again,

How much earlier are first class passengers boarded compared to coach? On the EB if it is on time what time are sleeping car passengers boarded? It would really help to know this.

Thanks Again

Are you talking about in Chicago, Seattle, or Portland?

If you are boarding from the Metropolitan Lounge in CUS the passengers are boarded 30-40 minutes ahead of train departure time. This is providing everything is normal and the train is set in the station early enough to do this.

I,m sorry, I was referring to Chicago.

The sleeper passengers on the Lake Shore Limited are boarded about one hour prior to departure.

You stow your luggage in your room, then go to the diner for wine and cheese. Last Sunday, you were able to stay in

the lounge until 8:30pm if you wanted to keep watching the Super Bowl!!
