I observed yesterday the northbound Meridian CRESCENT, Train 20(3) while I was in Philadelphia. Its consist, from front to back was:
AEM-7 locomotive
3 Amfleet II coaches
Lounge
Diner
2 Viewliners
Crew dorm
Baggage
This appears to be "backwards" from the normal configuration; usually the baggage and sleepers are towards the front of the train.
I wonder if the fact that the train currently turns in Meridian, MS has anything to do with it. One would expect that they could wye the train someplace around there.
