And will there be a bar car on the train?
Google: "Amtrak does not have traditional bar cars. However, Amtrak offers a variety of dining services, including cafe cars and dining cars, where alcoholic beverages like beer and wine are sold. Some routes also have lounge cars where you can relax and enjoy drinks. Additionally, passengers with sleeping car accommodations can consume alcoholic beverages from their private stock in their rooms. "

Supposedly the plan is to transition 7-11s in the US (that have the space) into a closer approximation of what they are in Japan. Much better fresh food, etc.

So do you poop in the bidet and it washes it away or do you get two separate bathroom fixtures?
The separate appliances are older-fashioned in Europe, still a thing in Italy (I think). What people in this thread are talking about are either toilets with attachments or smart toilets.

You use the toilet the same way, but instead of grabbing paper and using your hand to wipe everything away, you use streams of water to clean and a piece or two of paper to dry. My bidet toilet in Japan even had a sink top so you could wash your hands with the water that was filling the tank for the next flush. Smarter, better, cleaner hardware.
Don't eat the dead ones. (Sort and clean before cooking.)

Teenage mutant turtles hardest hit
Fun fact: When TMNT first got big, the word ninja was banned in some European countries. So the series and the NES games and such were called Teenage Mutant Hero Turtles.
