If so, here's how:

Once you choose your cities, a list of available trains comes up. The price is provided for coach (or for Acela Express - business class) travel. If you want to upgrade to business class or sleeper (or for Acela Express - First Class) there is a green box in the 2nd box from the right (next to the price) for each train (that you want to upgrade). Click that link, and you will see your options available. (You can - if you wish - upgrade on train during your trip. An example is you can go coach from Providence to NY and then business class from NY to Pittsburgh or a sleeper from NY to FL!)

If this is not what you asked about, please ask again.

Thanks the_traveler, I see the fares listed on the Zephyr line which shows coach, roomette, bedroom etc.. I was wondering if there are first or business class seats or is this on Acela only? Thanks.
