That is awesome! I am looking for similar diagrams for the bi-levels

Inner layout dimensions. bi level sleeper, sleeper/lounge, dome

Thanks, Peter. That's pretty neat. I wish they had the same info for the superliner bi level sleeper cars. i guess a little more searching should take me there.

While that pdf does show the layouts of a coach and baggage car it doesn't show the layouts of sleeper lounge/sleeper/dome cars. May be there's other PDFs for those?

Thanks, Peter. That would be awesome! Also about the PDFs of the current fleet - could this be it? - http://www.highspeed-rail.org/Documents/PRIIA_Bi-Level_Spec_305-001_Approved_rev%20C.1.pdf

A thought just occurred to me this morning - How hard would it be to get our hands on a blueprint of the inner layout of different Amtrak railcars?

Pretty cool! Feels so good to know I am not the only crazy one ;)

Right. Even if it is not a primary home. Would make a super cool livable hangout spot (crash-pad) in the backyard. And yea viewliner is definitely a worthy candidate with its main door located right at the center of the car and the car is tall enough to even make it a two story place - with some...

Very Interesting! Thanks, trainman74

Very cute! IMO, Would have felt a lot cooler if at least some of the unique caboose features were integrated with the interior's modern furnishings. To give that "feel" that you are actually inside a caboose and not a motel "box".

Thanks, Seaboard92. I will definitely reach out to you when this crazy idea gets me to act on it. :) btw, browsing through your pics website. Mind-blowing!

Thanks, Just-Thinking-51 I did visit that website. Pretty cool. RE: railcar being too narrow - It will be quite a project to re-purpose it. gutting etc. Found something similar (airbnb): Historic Railcar on Skaneateles Lake

Hi. Have had this pipe dream of converting an Amtrak Viewliner or Dome or Sleeper/Lounge railcar into a home on a piece of land (permanent). Wondering if anyone here has done it or knows some one who has done it? Thanks.
