Is Amtrak currently still running the Chargers on the California Zephyr or has that stopped?

Good to know they have many lls around, because who knows when or if the damage cars will get repaired.

I wonder will they have enough cars available around to put together southbound 91.

Yes, I will. I like these cars tube design and wheel trucks. Makes them stand out! Miss the Amflleet 1s? Not so much, because of their small windows and lack of leg room. The new Venture cars looks like adequate replacements. The cars I'll really miss when they go are the Amfleet 2s. But I'm...

I rode the Cardinal in 2019 when they had business class. I like the 2v1 seating, but they use an Amfleet I. So, the windows in not as big as the coach class that uses the Amfleet IIs(minor though).

A road full potholes? No! You got be slow and careful with those or you'll mess up your car. I have yet to encounter anything on the rails as nasty as those if you speed across them.

Obviously when not trying to sleep: I kind of look forward to rough track. It can make ride more interesting . The only thing I don't like about is the stuff that raddles, that could be rather loud and obnoxious.

Oh...ok thanks guys for letting me know. I thought I heard somewhere that they didn't need Urea, especially compared to the F125 locomotive that Metrolink purchased. Where the Chargers are concerned: I think it would of been better if the extended the front windsheilds all the way towards...

I know many people aren't a fan of the amfleets and often refer to them as amcans. But I like their tubular design, it makes the stand out. I wish we could get some amfleet III's, but I know that isn't going happen. I also like the look of these cars trucks too, how it exposes almost all of...

I don't know for sure, but I don't think the Chargers need any Urea treatment(one of their major selling points). I gonna miss the Genesis too, but they couldn't last foerver. Their ages are showing.

Not nitpicking or anything, but the Richmond Station isn't on the Crescent Route. Not that I know of anyway.

With the 2-1 seating: Is the 2 seats on the right or left side of the car? Also, is the seats toward the front of car or back, cause I know business class got tables sense it's half a lounge car?

I know this about the Silvers, but what about the Cardinal. From videos I seen it seems as thought switch it up with this train. So I know weather business class will be towards the front or rear, when I take my trip.

I be taking the Cardinal except I be going West Bound this Spring. I'm just a tiny bit weary about it, because the Cardinal uses one engine and travels long distance with all the recent engine  failures. Especially sense I went ahead a paid for business class to see what the Cardinals about. ...

I'm sorry If this been answered, But why are these painted in Phase 3 Scheme?  It doesn't make sense.

I really like the Genesis units, but they are getting old and can't last forever. The new Charger locomotives don't look that bad.  The only thing main thing I don't like about them is: I wish the front wind shields would extend all the way to the edge of front(of locomotive).  With the current...
