Amtrak, the largest passenger railroad service in the U.S., operates the train from Miami to Washington. The two cities are connected by the Silver Service line, composed of two trains, the Silver Meteor and Silver Star.

The Silver Service is a long-distance Amtrak service connecting New York and Miami and serving many smaller cities along the way. All trains have Viewliner sleeping cars, with the option of booking a smaller roomette or a more comfortable bedroom. Still, unlike the Silver Star, the Silver Meteor has a dining car, which also means that the sleeping cars get inclusive room service. 

Amtrak offers two types of units on their Viewliner sleeper cars:

1. At first glance, the Roomette is a tiny room, but it is very well-used. Different innovative storage options will surprise you at every step. They start with two comfortable recliner seats, which turn into a bed, and a second bunk bed that you pull from the ceiling, making enough space for two people to sleep and have a great view. The older Viewliner cars have a toilet and a sink in the room (one of the surprises under the steps to the upper bunk), which can be tricky if there are two people. The newer cars have toilets and bathrooms in the hallway.
2. The Bedroom is twice as big, with a comfy queen bed and a bathroom in the room (separated by a door). It has all the amenities of the Roomette with a difference of more space and a higher price. 

If you opt for the sleeping car, keep in mind that you must book the entire unit alone or with someone. Also, the coach has comfortable reclining seats, perfect for getting some shut-eye, so give it a chance.

In Miami, you can board the train at The Miami Amtrak Station (8303 NW 37th Ave). It offers travelers a large and convenient waiting area with vending machines, restrooms, on-site customer service staff, and secure parking facilities. For easy access to other parts of this vibrant city, there's also a Tri-Rail Metrorail Transfer Station conveniently located just blocks away from 8303 NW 37th Ave!

In New York, you will exit at Penn Station's newest addition - Moynihan Train Hall. Located adjacent to Penn Station, the 350,000-square-foot facility is designed to offer travelers a modern and comfortable place to wait for or transfer between Amtrak and Long Island Rail Road departures. This new facility replaces the original James A. Farley Post Office Building. It features 30 retail shops and a 15,000-square-foot public square that provides access to Penn Station and subway line 7.
