23 July 05, yes seats where assiged on the CL that night. It worked out very nicely. Conductor ask for single travelers at track side, gave them each a seat number stub. I informed him that we were six in one family. He could only seat four of us togeather. That was fine. My son his wife and our two granddaughters got to sit acrossed from one another. We were two rows back. This put single people togeather in double seats as it should be , so that families do not have to be split up. On the way back from CHI I found a small sing in the seat back that said, reserved for couples and families only. This was on the LSL. I suppose because of a sold out train seat assignment is the way to go. It works for me.
