Not sure there Euro equipment that comes close to looking like this. Unless a Siemens set and covert to sleepers.View attachment 36391View attachment 36392
Well the photos are really nice. Nothing like what there going to start out running with, but still really nice.
Do the former ATSF bi-levels have any useful life left in them? I guess they were eliminated by Amtrak for a reason, and the many years of subsequent languishing in the open will not have improved them either.According to this article here, the equipment they're using will be refurbished bi-level equipment. Whether that means the former ATSF Hi-level cars that Amtrak used I'm not sure, they could also be retired commuter coaches from elsewhere. It's not made clear.

Lie flat beds and Wi_Fi throughout the train. Queen beds and showers for premium class. Modern lounge cars and Ap-based ticket service. Sounds good if it isn't all just speculative.
