Charlie,

It's great to see a "modern" passenger train with only 2 cars.
Thanks for sharing this one.

btw what is the date of this pic?

Sorry, I forgot the date, it was 10/28/1980. As for "modern" I have some photos of the newer Amtrak European look but I don't make any added effort to photograph them, personally I think they are ugly and the new paint doesn't work for me either.
