Train EATS Act

This bill amends title 49, United States Code, to establish specific food and beverage service requirements for Amtrak's overnight routes. It mandates that Amtrak make available both traditional dining , which involves seated service by wait staff in a dedicated car, and an alternative, more affordable food and beverage service for all passengers. The goal is to ensure a range of dining options for travelers on longer journeys. Furthermore, the legislation specifies that any unused capacity in traditional dining, after accommodating First Class and Business Class passengers, must be offered to Coach Class passengers on a first-come, first-serve basis for a fee. Traditional dining options must also include a healthy meal option consistent with federal dietary guidelines and accommodate pre-ordered dietary restrictions. The Secretary of Transportation is directed to issue regulations to carry out these new requirements for Amtrak's overnight services.
