Amtrak "newbie" ? : Upper or lower seat in Coach?
I have never taken Amtrak and it looks like I will make my first trip this Christmas from Seattle to Vancouver BC.
The train does not offer a Business Class but an "upgrade option" to reserve a seat in the lower compartment. (there is no price difference)
Where do I want to sit? Upper or lower?
Also.. how early does one have to get to the train station to get a decent seat? ( I think this will be on Monday the 24th of December)
Thanks for any advice.
