Silver Star/Silver Meteor combined train (Jan - Oct 2022)

[user 14106]

It’s been a while since we’ve seen this!

92(15) consist at Plant City:

• 2 engines
• VL I sleeper (DH)
• Café (DH)
• 3 coaches
• Café
• Diner
• VL I sleeper (disguised as a VL II)
• VL II sleeper
• Baggage

So combined with @AmtrakBlue's post, it looks like 9110/9210 will be the VL I, and 9111/9211 will be the VL II.

I hope it’s the opposite for 98. Oh well…

97 (15) consist at Ashland:

• 2 engines
• FRA car
• 2 baggage cars
• 3 coaches
• Cafe
• Diner
• VL I sleeper
• VL II sleeper
• Baggage

So at least for today, both 91 & 97 had sleeper 10 as the VL I, and sleeper 11 as the VL II. They also both had 3 coaches, although there's no telling from outside whether one of those was deadheading.

Currently the Silver Meteor and Silver Star are running separately (and no longer are combined), which is great news for many of us. Silver Meteor 98 departed Miami 5 minutes late this morning (10/16).

Because this thread is no longer relevant (Silvers no longer combined), it has been locked.
