My husband has a mobility scooter. Will it fit in the accessible sleeper? Amtrak said that it will if it falls within the measurements, but I am worried that we will not have much room in the sleeper.
My mother's scooter was an early Pride Legend, later models were a little more maneuverable. Length 48 inches, Width 24 inches, turning radius 54 inches. No wonder I had to lift the front around corners, that is 9 feet diameter!Yes, that's a superliner. My mother had one of the larger Pride 4-wheel models. I had to lift the front end to get it around the corners to get it in, then we parked it along the back wall and piled everything else on it. Still had room for me to get between toilet, sink, and bed in small manual wheelchair. She used a walker on the train. Viewliner is harder, scooter has to be shorter than half the width of the room because entry door and bathroom door both swing in. I'll look up her scooter model later so you can compare size and turning radius to your husband's.
