Has anyone been on the Amtrak train from Seattle to Los Angeles? Amtrak say it is one of their most beautiful bit is it really? Also how confortable are the reclining seats or are beds essential?

The Coast Starlight is one of America's premier trains and the views (sit on the right hand side going to LA) are wonderful of the ocean and the littoral. If you want to find out more I suggest you go to:

Do a search for Coast Starlight and you find all sorts of views on what it has to offer. Enjoy your trip.
