So far this isn't looking good. First of all, no PPC again (guess I'll never get to see one). The have a CCC (at least I'm pretty sure thats what it is) that the're claiming is the PPC. I made a comment to our car attendant that it was going to bug me all trip if they keep calling it that and he said that these are the "new" parlour cars. That the originals just can't be repaired anymore. In other bad news, the A/C went out in the diner, the second engine crapped out and the first one is overheating. They're not sure yet how to get us over the mountains. This trip just keeps getting worse.
