Thanks, Alan, I was not aware of that change. Obviously Amtrak is right to continue maximizing sleeper revenue given the scarcity of space. That still doesn't explain the logic in prohibiting upgrades on AGR tickets. In fact, it makes it even less logical -- and the lost revenue for Amtrak even worse -- if the prevailing accommodation charge bucket is high in any given situation.
