Amtrak, the largest passenger railroad service in the US, operates the train service from Orlando to Stamford. There is no direct connection between the two cities. You will start with the long-distance Amtrak Silver Service from Miami to New York. At New York's Penn Station and Washington's Union station, you will transfer either to the high-speed train service Acela or the slightly cheaper and slower Northeast Regional.

  1. The Silver Service is a long-distance Amtrak service connecting New York and Miami, serving many smaller cities. 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 means that the sleeping cars get inclusive room service. 
  2. The Acela Express is a high-speed train between Washington, DC, and Boston, MA. It is the fastest train in the Northeast Corridor, reaching 150 miles per hour; Acela tickets are pricier due to their incredible speeds and comfort. Extra legroom, free Wi-Fi, and a power outlet under each seat are some perks you can expect on Amtrak Acela Express.
  3. Northeast Regional is the most popular train due to its price and frequency. It runs around ten times a day. The Northeast Regional is slower but makes more stops along the way, making it a more convenient option for passengers who need to make connections. 

Travel from Orlando to Stamford in a sleeper car

So there are two options if you want to sleep in Silver Services' sleeping car.

  1. The Roomette is, at first glance, 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 big comfy queen bed and a bathroom in the room (separated by a door). It has all the amenities of the Roomette with more space and a higher price. 

If you opt for the sleeping car, remember 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.

Fun fact or a warning: Penn Station is the busiest train station in the western hemisphere, so keep your eyes peeled on your belongings and take a deep breath before you step into the Station.
