Are there electrical outlets in the sleeper cars of the California Zephyr?
I will be taking the California Zephyr the entire journey, and I planned on getting a lot of work done on my laptop during the journey. I will be staying in a roomette, I've taken Amtrak on the North East Corrider, both coach and Acela before and I know that coach and business class Acela have outlets. However, I can't find outlets in this 3-D Panoramic of a California Zephyr Roomette.
Will I be able to charge my laptop during this 52 hour journey?
Best Answer
I traveled on the California Zephyr in January 2010 and had a roomette. It does indeed have an outlet. As I recall, it had a label saying something like "Razor Only" but worked fine to charge my laptop. It might not work for higher-current appliances.
