Basically, you're paying $20 more to ensure that you don't have to stand for 2 hours. And yes, there is a cart selling drinks and snacks (although how does that work with no way to get a cart up and down the stairs?) |

Yeah, there's a cart at the vestibule level of each of the Hampton's Reserve Cars.Oh, and the Hamptons Reserve cars' seats do also have cupholders and more baggage space on the lower level. That's basically the only differences between them and the rest of the fleet. |

I thought it was more than just a cart but actually (small) serving counter in the vestibule level spot where the 5 seats that face each other normally are... Maybe they've done some remodeling since I last saw them (~2002) and there is just empty space to roll a cart? |

Since the cars have upper and lower levels, I guess the beverage carts stay on the platform level situated at the car ends ? Bill Newkirk |
