Amtrak Silver Service

Pros: During this pandemic, I was able too sit alone. Thanks. Cons: I am not totally sure what all the items were but maybe if not listed, hot cereal, onion rings, sandwiches including either bacon/ham/turkey sausage separately with eggs and cheese or without. Just some ideas! Tips: Be prepared with tickets, identification if needed, clean your area while seating, use headphones when playing music or movies and last keep your voice at a minimal when talking on phone.
