NAACP attorney Ifill asked to surrender seat on Baltimore-bound Amtrak train as MLK weekend began
Sherrilyn Ifill was returning to Baltimore from New York on Amtrak train 80 Friday, as she does at the end of many working weeks, when she says a junior conductor approached and asked her to give up her seat. To say that the internationally known civil rights attorney and activist bristled would be an understatement. ADVERTISEMENT
“When I was laying her out to the [lead] conductor, at one point, I said, ‘I can sit where I want,’ and I thought, ‘This isn’t 1950,’ ” the Baltimore resident, who is African American, wrote in her Twitter feed Friday night. What unfolded in the pages of Ifill’s Twitter account was a sometimes irate description of an incident that is evoking memories of just the kinds of civil rights violations she has spent her career fighting, all as Martin Luther King Jr. Day weekend — a time she calls “sacred” — was getting under way.
“I am colossally disappointed in @Amtrak for both this incident & the way it was handled,’” she tweeted Saturday afternoon. Jason Abrams, an Amtrak spokesman, said in an email to The Sun that the company tried “numerous times” to reach out to Ifill directly Friday night and apologized to her upon finally reaching her Saturday morning.

“We should have responded publicly sooner, and we apologized for the incident and our slow response,” Abrams wrote. “Amtrak is looking into the matter more closely so that we can prevent situations like this going forward.”
Ifill, the president and director of the NAACP Legal Defense and Educational Fund in New York and cousin of the late former Evening Sun reporter and PBS political analyst Gwen Ifill, did not immediately respond to requests for comment. |

Date: January 19th, 2020 7:56 AM Author: brilliant business firm They typically run 2x trains an hour from NY to DC - one Acela Express and one Acela Regional. There re also the longhaul trains mixed in throughout the day which will make some of the northeast corridor spots but not all.
Looks like the Carolinian (train 80) is scheduled to leave Baltimore at 550PM next Friday. Theres an Acela Regional train that leaves at 548, so easy to not realize you are on a different type of train.
The Carolinian will have a baggage car; not sure if there are any other differences. My father recently took a long haul Amtrak train on a regional route in the northeast and was given an “assigned” seat by the conductor. |
