I thought the locations were numbered. Shows how much I pay attention to these things...

I hope this helps:

If you are in Newark Penn - facing toward New York City -- the first track to you right is Track A  
(I guess the Pensy would have called this East)

Then proceeding to you left (West, I guess) is track 1, 2. 3. 4. and finally Track 5,  used mainly by 
NJT Rattan Valley trains.

Those are track numbers. I was refering to location letters along the platforms. I think A is west; E is east.

Are you referring to Car location numbers on the platforms?

If you, are. I don't think Amtrak uses them.  At least they didn't each time I
boarded Acela 1st Class -- or conventional coach or Business Class

But, car location signs might be needed again, now that Amtrak is assigning a
car number and seat number to Acela reservations.

Sorry, I couldn't be more help.

They are used in Newark and Trenton. I check out NJTs Departure Vision. It sometimes states which location the quiet and business cars are located.
