Traveling on Amtrak

The design of small living spaces — mobile homes, RV’s — is a real art. Bedrooms on Amtrak are cozy and have a couch, chair, closet and storage spaces, sink, toilet and even a little shower. At night they convert to upper and lower beds. They are quite comfortable, the food in the dining car is good, and the views from the observation car are often spectacular. Here are sketches facing each side.
