Has Anyone watched "There Goes a Train?"

[Phila 30th St]

When I was growing up with had this VHS Called "There Goes a Train" (part of a series where helpful host Dave went and demonstrated machinery to youngsters". One segment was him working on an Amtrak train out of Los Angeles where he toured the dining car, lounge, sleepers and coaches.

Has anyone else seen this? If so...any idea what train he's on?

I found it recently and watched it (for the hell of it :lol: ) and he was indeed on the CS. I must say it kinda makes Amtrak train attendants/waiters look like idiots if you only watch that part of it :lol: !

Ahhh lovely, thank you PetalumaLoco for correctly identifying it. The CS looks a little different now I'd say

Wasn't there also a train show on with LaVar Burton that was on an Amtrak train as well? I recall seeing it several times.
