Though more people are asking for sleeping quarters than ever before, Amtrak simply does not have the equipment to accommodate them and Washington does not appear ready to provide any additional ones. "It takes political support, public support to maintain a viable rail system," says Michael Barosso, a Sacramento farmer and frequent rider. Since it came under the leadership of W.
