room. Room 9 2:00pm We leave Chicago behind. Our 4000km (2400mi) journey has begun. Your pizza was very gud. Promptly after departure, the attendant is going around
handing out dinner schedules. I scheduled my dinner for 5:45pm Scheduled it just in time for sunset. Here is the roomette room. Each car features 14 of these rooms. All featuring the same: A sofa bed. Lights, Music control Light control Air Conditioning Bedding, Power Outlet Water bottle. Table Closet, Towel, Hangers, Phone storage, Tissue, Pillow, Second bed.

rode from New York. Now that the room touring is done. Let’s go find the washroom Or should we just train tour first? Ok train tour first. These is the economy seats. Business Class seats. The lounge car. Below the lounge car is the food stand. economy and business class passengers can buy
food from this
