Quick question: Could someone tell me what cars and how many of each type are used on the Southern Cresent? I thought that it would be easier to find, but I can’t quite come up with a good list.
Thanks![;)]
Try the Yahoo Amtrak group. http://groups.yahoo.com/group/amtrak/ There are some “insiders” there that can give you the current consist.
I recently rode the Cresent. There was a baggage car, domitory car, 2 Viewliner sleepers, dining car, cafe car, and 3 coaches…
As usual, the sleepers were full…as they always are… One must reserve and purchase a sleeper at least a month or more in advance…
Unlike the Superliner trainsets, the single level trains lack a sightseeing lounge car, which would be very nice to have…
