Right--not even for a corkage fee. With Amtrak's
very limited wine selection, they might do well to do something like this in the dining car. But then again, who wants to waste a nice bottle of Silver Oak 2002 Napa Cabernet on a convection oven-reheated burger or pasta?
(To the OP--the convection oven can actually do a decent job, so don't get scared away...)
