Did Amtrak ever put a caboose on the Auto Train?

Irrespective of the width of the steps on the Superliners, you will have a hard time getting to or from SEA on the SWC. Only the EB and CS serve SEA (along with the Cascades, of course).

When I saw "Chapel Hill" and "Amtrak #5" in the headline, I thought it was going to be a thread about the CZ taking a major detour through North Carolina, perhaps at the behest of the_traveler.

Single-level equipment, and one train being pushed by two engines.

It looks like you can find schedules for specific stops, but not for the system, or even for a given service, as a whole. I'm sure somebody at TTC considers this more user-friendly.

My guess is that if the SWC is re-routed onto the Transcon, ABQ will be served by a new Amshack out in the boonies, with bus or taxi connections to the present downtown Amtrak station (a la Grand Forks, or Cheyenne in the last few years of Pioneer service).

I believe there are video recorders and/or "black-box" type devices that are supposed to get that information automatically (well, except for the question about the brother-in-law, of course).

Useful to know in case someone wants to play chicken there.

How many votes are there in those small towns? Not many, I'll reckon. The most likely scenario is that the states will subsidize enhanced bus service to those towns for a while, then eliminate the subsidy whenever they need to make cuts ("Does it really make sense to pay thousands of dollars a...

I was not able to locate a diagram showing the penthouse suites that the_traveler favors, however.

If--or should I say when?--the_traveler takes this trip, he may have to spring a few more p for the penthouse suite.
