Has it been more than 20 min? I'd give the person some time to work a bit of magic to see if the kid goes to sleep or something. If it's been awhile and you have most of your trip left I think it's fair to say something. slightly asshole ish but understandable.
I'm an introvert mom of two and the quiet car is such a reprieve for my mental health. but rules are rules are rules and if it's driving you nuts, say something.
It’s been about an hour and I have an hour left on my trip.

Put some headphones on and stop acting like the world only belongs to you. The audacity of some people is amazing.
At least D1 acknowledges they’re a Karen! First step is awareness
No, she knows where she is.
Absolutely complain. Kids are one of the primary reasons quiet cars exist; so we can escape them!

What about asking how you can help?
Thank you SE1. I struggled with this bc I really love kids and have taken care of enough of them to know how unruly they can be. Frustration was with the mom for choosing the QC on a fairly empty train.
Thanks all, for the insights! People in the car started aggressively shushing the kid every time he screamed and one woman loudly said “you shouldn’t be in the quiet car.” Mom either relocated or have the kid headphones (they were seated behind me so I couldn’t see).
The woman who called the mom out is a hero. Really took one for the team.

Kids don’t belong in the quiet car. /thread
Are you sure there are two seats available together in other cars? She may have gotten on and that was what she could easily find so she took it.
As a fellow mom of a toddler, I 100% agree this mom should not have brought her toddler to the quiet car. You totally could have complained to the conductor. I wouldn’t say anything to the mom though, who already probably feels frazzled that her kid is being noisy (though she should switch cars).

What does AITA mean?
Yes, it stands for Am I The A$$hole. It originated from on Reddit.com, where a subreddit of a similar name allows folks to post stories and ask for crowdsourced votes on whether they’re the a$$hole in a situation.

Isn’t Amtrak still on assigned seating? I rode Acela a month ago and you couldn’t pick your seat
Nope, not assigned.
