So I'm after a night in a first class compartment and... what the hell
The seats feel larger - yes, for day journeys it's great, but...
The handrests can't be lifted or regulated in any way
The small tables are very poorly designed - because of the mechanics (it's held just from one side) it's slightly tilted and also it's made of a quite slippery material... feels like tragedy, does it?
I don't think it's such an improvement for night travelling compared to second class for that price... but it's still way better than open-space carriages
Just bring the good old Bmz!

For all the talk about the trade between Canada and the US, there are only three #intercity passenger #rail #trains that travel between them, the Amtrak Maple Leaf between NYC and Toronto once per day, the Amtrak Adirondack between NYC and Montreal once per day, and the Amtrak Cascades between Eugene, OR, and Vancouver, BC, formerly six times per day, currently once per day (I think) due to premature corrosion failures of the trainsets causing them to be pulled from service.
