Please give us plugs at every seat! Especially on the Long-Distance trains!
I’m very frustrated

We agree! Amtrak is currently retrofitting existing Superliners with electrical outlets as they cycle through the Beech Grove, Indiana overhaul facility. Since the Superliners cycle on a 4-year program, and this addition began during the Summer of 2007, the cars should all be completed by the Summer of 2011. Approximately 40-45% of the Superliner cars are currently completed. On the short- and long-distance Amfleet cars, nearly the entire fleet is completed. Thanks for the good ideas! Keep them coming!

Inappropriate?Amtrak is in the process of rebuilding over 50 sidelined superliner cars with the stimulus money. Here's a great opportunity for them to add more outlets, especially on the Superliner I coaches.

Mr Cohen,
Thank you for giving us a timeline! Having a date we can look too, makes a big difference. And thank you for monitoring the site - we truly appreciate it!

Inappropriate?Mr. Cohen,
Do you know if the Sightseer Lounge Cars are being retrofitted with additional plugs as well? We hear a lot of requests for those on board, but haven't seen any of the refurbished cars with more than the normal 3 plugs per car.

I’m confident

Hi Jarrod,
The Superliner Lounge Cars are being retrofitted with outlet strips as well (both upstairs and downstairs). This particular program began more recently and only a few cars are completed.
Hope this helps! See you on the rails!
