Amtrak Lake Shore Limited
Pros: WiFi, adjustable footrest, and the collapsable lap table. Cons: The employee that steps out of the cars when the train arrives at a station could announce which place they will be headed. There were 3 different places that people filed into different cars for, and I was nervous I had gotten into the wrong line. Tips: Do not be afraid to ask questions, and lose all expectations/hopes to get a seat to yourself. I've had the luxury once, but this time around I had no other choice but to share a row.
