Do trains have luggage racks?

There are overhead luggage racks in all Amtrak cars, as well as a big luggage rack either at one end of the car on single level cars or downstairs by the entry doors on the bi-level cars. The overhead racks will take a pretty big suitcase, larger in fact that what you're officially allowed to carry onto the train.
