Take a multi-day railroad trip in a sleeper car

“For our 45-hour journey, we were assigned Roomette 2, which was on the upper deck of the sleeper car right across from the attendant's cabin. One or two people could be accommodated in each roomette, which were only about 45 inches wide by 80 inches long. There were two seats (about 27 inches wide each) in each roomette that faced each other. [...] The seats in each roomette could be turned into a single bed, and then a second bunk could be lowered from above. Each bed came with a fitted sheet, flat sheet, blanket and pillow -- all of which were set up by the cabin attendant at an arranged time. The lower bunk came with a mattress pad and was certainly the better option. It was softer and measured 78 inches long by 27 inches wide. Even when the upper bunk was lowered, I was able to sit upright on the bottom.”
