Roomette luggage

[crabby_appleton1950]

I would only be carrying a few dresses, a computer monitor, and my PS3. ☺

If the train trip is your vacation, you'll be missing a lot by bringing along a monitor and PS3.

But as has been said, do what you want.

But only one outlet per room. Hence, bring a power strip if you plan to plug in multiple items.

Is a three foot cord with a power strip long enough for a Superliner roomette?

In my experience, yes, but it depends on how you set up your room.

The average power strip has a long enough cord that I can prop it behind the bracket that holds the little table. I've never bothered with an extension cord, especially since my laptop and phone both have long-ish cords.

i find looking out of a window at night to a pitch black environment fairly boring myself so I usually take a book or a handheld console for the evenings even though during daylight Im camped looking out the window but if you can carry a ps4 and monitor then why not! Its your trip no one elses

Bringing a monitor and game console is nothing new. I've seen it setup on one of the tables in the SSL with two guys playing on the Empire Builder using headphones.

I would recommend a 4 footer with a straight plug not an angled plug; some older outlets don't like the right angled plugs

I have a six foot cord that I bring on most trips. I use the straight plug with the three-plug receptacle. The grip tape on superliner stairs is gritty enough to easily file off the tab that prevents one from plugging a laptop into a extension cord.

I use the big cord because off-beat hotels and european hotels don't always have abundant wall plugs or well-located wall plugs.

I use a 6" short straight 3-prong cord and a Belkin 3 outlet + 2 USB ports w/Surge Protection

with swivel plug. Small and easy to pack. As you can see two oversize chargers will fit but you can bring a couple additional 6" short cords as needed. They whole thing can tuck along the headrest bolster.

Now that's what I call "organisation"!!!
