Is Quiet Car Quiet?

No cell phone use, no sound-emitting electronic devices. No loud conversations, maintain a library-like atmosphere.

Thou shalt follow Christopher Hitchens' 8th Commandment.

Turn Off That Fucking Cellphone

[Is Quiet Car Quiet? @IsQuietCarQuiet]

Yessssss. It’s YOUR rule, and it’s a great one. So enforce it. Let’s hear it for the conductors who lay down the law early!

[@tiffanydcross @TiffanyDCross]

Dear @Amtrak, PLEASE for the love of Beyonce, find a way to better enforce the QUIET CAR policy!!!!!!!!!! It should not be left to me to ask people to gtf off their cell phones on the quiet car. GAH! There's always one. Every. Single. Time.

[Is Quiet Car Quiet? @IsQuietCarQuiet]

There are six other cars on this train where you’re free to say it to your heart’s content 😉

[Gabe Klein @gabe_klein]

Can I just say how much I love @Amtrak? 2.5 hours DC to NYC launches today, goodbye airplanes. https://t.co/mhatKoj5DL

What cheering in the Quiet Car looks like. Thanks @WorkingFamilies!

[Is Quiet Car Quiet? @IsQuietCarQuiet]

Strength and honor.

[Is Quiet Car Quiet? @IsQuietCarQuiet]

Why we fight.

[Is Quiet Car Quiet? @IsQuietCarQuiet]

All things have a purpose.
The purpose of the Quiet Car is that your phone call, and yours alone, may pierce the placid silence, like a skipping stone on the water at dawn.

[Is Quiet Car Quiet? @IsQuietCarQuiet]

No, it’s still the Quiet Car. You and your friend should go split a Bud Light.

[Adam Hodge @hodge]

When it’s only you and @DougHeye in the #quietcar, it’s no longer the quiet car.

[Jim Goldgeier @JimGoldgeier]

Last time I took it to NY, it was quiet both directions, once again showing the importance of individual leaders. Our conductor was not going to tolerate any violations!

[Is Quiet Car Quiet? @IsQuietCarQuiet]

It’s not magic. It’s real.

[Sam Sanders @samsanders]

My kingdom for a traincar that magically prevents anyone from playing music on their devices without headphones

[Is Quiet Car Quiet? @IsQuietCarQuiet]

This guy gets it

[Douglas Heye @DougHeye]

Everything should be a Quiet Car.

[intellect over emotion @MagicMaineHerb]

Is this you? Lady who thought the world needed and deserved to hear your business in the #QuietCar? More than one person asked you to please stop. You didn't. So, #QuietCarShame is upon you. @amtrakquietcar @IsQuietCarQuiet #Amtrak @AmtrakNECAlerts #QuietCarJustice #shhh #respect

[Is Quiet Car Quiet? @IsQuietCarQuiet]

Shoutout to anyone who’d rather be seen in this than just sit in another fucking car https://t.co/vl5VCiealY

[Cheddar @cheddar]

This box mutes your voice so you can make phone calls in public.

[Is Quiet Car Quiet? @IsQuietCarQuiet]

Ironclad nope.

[Alex Shulman @Nate1212]

Not in the quiet car but speakerphone still a hard “no”, right @IsQuietCarQuiet ?

[Is Quiet Car Quiet? @IsQuietCarQuiet]

.@ewarren passes a critical early test. Strikes exactly the right tone here. Sends a clear, unambiguous message. This primary just got 🤫

[Elizabeth Warren @ewarren]

I hear women candidates are most likable in the quiet car! I’ll be talking again on @maddow @ 9pm ET.

[Is Quiet Car Quiet? @IsQuietCarQuiet]

With you.

[Bianca Style @Bianca_Style_NY]

@IsQuietCarQuiet Hi! #QuietCar lover here! I'm sick of its sanctity being attacked. So I'm starting a public shaming campaign! Join me! Take pictures of quiet car #violators & post them with the hashtag #QuietCarShame! Are you with me?

[Is Quiet Car Quiet? @IsQuietCarQuiet]

Reach out to me

[Is Quiet Car Quiet? @IsQuietCarQuiet]

Munch-noises disrupt a library-like atmosphere. Mitigating factors may be taken into account, however, including healthy snacking.

[Michael Barbaro @mikiebarb]

Eating baby carrots in the Quite Car. Lots of them.
A rule breaker?
Asking for somebody sitting, unhappily, across from a Baby Carrot Eater.

[Is Quiet Car Quiet? @IsQuietCarQuiet]

No higher calling

[Is Quiet Car Quiet? @IsQuietCarQuiet]

What she does she does for us all

[Irin Carmon @irin]

These two men yukking it up in the quiet car were just politely reprimanded by a woman. "Were we that loud?" one replied.

[Is Quiet Car Quiet? @IsQuietCarQuiet]

Congrats
