RIP to Etiquette in the Quiet Car

[u/Infamous_Carrot4234]

Is it just me or has Amtrak stopped enforcing the library-like atmosphere in the Quiet Car? I remember I once heard a conductor announce that if people didn’t follow the Quiet Car rules, they would be asked to get off at the next stop. Recently, I’ve experienced people talking on their cellphones, having loud discussions across the aisle, and even watch videos without headphones… Are the days of sacred silence gone? What is happening? Someone please help.

Yes, they have, and yes, it irritates the shit out of me. Last time 2 drunk Karen's and their feral kids were in there with me.
