I'm not paying extra money for sleeper cars, no. I'm going to get the thirty day pass -- if that covers sleeper cars, great, and if not, I can sleep in my car.

Bring your own food and drink. Amtrak food isn't just bad from the Lounge car isn't just bad, its expensive. And, IIRC, they no longer prepare fresh food in the dining cars.
Padlock your bags. The first 24 hour Amtrak ride I was on, their was a pickpocket in my car, the second time, some dude tried to steal my laptop.
That's something I want to know about. What type of arrangements are there for your bags? Is it just bring it onto the car and put it under your seat or over?
