Amtrak's original reservation system in the 1970's did allow specific seat assignments for LD trains. This was stopped before the end of the decade. For one thing, conductors and attendants found that it led to too many, um, confrontations with passengers who switched seats. Also, in those days most service ran with heritage coaches, with many variations in floor plan and seat numbering, and no certainty as to what would run as a given car line on a given day.Alan Follett South San Francisco, CA |
