We rode Amtrak from Sacramento California to Tukwilla Washington.

Pros:

• Seat pitch, plenty of room everywhere including in the Coach car, huge comfortable seats with plenty of leg room even for Mrs dimes and Jr who's around 6'5".
• Food was good.
• We got roomettes for most of the journey, bottom bunk was quite nice. Top bunk was a bit claustrophobic inducing but still a bed.
• No pre boarding X-ray and they didn't seize my beer or sealed container of frito's bean dip.

Cons:

• Price.
• restroom in coach was kind of nasty.
• Not being high speed rail made the trip pretty long almost 24 hours with a stop over in Portland.

At Sea-tac airport pre boarding security they threw out my bean dip after I was forced to get X-rayed. Obvious power moves to put me in my place. Frito's bean dip is not a liquid.
