I had the opportunity to get a great deal on the Roomette using Amtrak's BidUp program.

Great video. One thing that you didn't mention though was the fact that you can have your meals in your roomette if you prefer.

Travelling solo one time I picked up a roomette for about half price on a trip between Chicago and Minneapolis with a Bidup, which was worth it IMO. Was very nice to have the station lounge to relax in while waiting on a delayed train instead of the wooden benches of the lobby, and being able to lay down once aboard as we would be subsequently travelling into the wee hours. First Class also allows for the meals to be delivered to the room if desired instead of having to go to the dining car and share a table, although the attendant appeared less than thrilled by my request for that service.

Roomette was great for one person, coach at times can be hectic as passengers come and go in the night especially

Good review, I always wondered what one of those rooms was like!

I'm in a roomette, for the first time, tomorrow. Found out I'm in a transition/dorm car. Have you traveled in that car before? I'm reading mixed reviews on it. Some say customers in that car are forgotten with no attendant, no coffee, no turn down. Other reviews say an attendant will help if they have time. I feel like I'll be in the abyss haha.

Thanks for not making you video a 40 minute ordeal.
Ever thought about using a decibel meter while riding AMTRAK?
One of the biggest drawbacks to those crappy trains is noise...that and the ride quality sucks.
Always has.
