This is my second time taking amtrak... (been a while.. first time was kind of awful but I am giving it a second shot, had hours upon hours of delays etc etc due to a winter blizzard) The last time I rode with my boyfriend, and this time I will be alone, I am a bigger girl (even more so since the last time I traveled on amtrak) how big are the seats? what is the likely hood that I will be able to get a seat alone? I know I will have trouble sleeping if I have a seatmate. I will be traveling mid august from Baltimore to Chicago and then an amtrak bus to rockford, Il. Whats the situation with electrical outlets? I will be bringing a laptop and an ipad to watch videos and read books and will need to charge these every few hours... also whats the deal with the bus from amtrak? will tell me where to go? will the buses be outside?
If this is TLDR for you heres a summary:
1. How big are the seats?
2. What are the chances I can get a seat alone?
3. Are there outlets at the seats?
4. How do I catch the amtrak bus?
5. How much is the food on the diner car and what is offered?
any other tips would be good....
I will be taking the capitol limited there on august 13 and the cardinal back on august 21..
