Today’s Rail Passengers hotline reports a single-level Southwest Chief year run, perhaps in anticipation in re-equipping the train with new single-level cars. But I guess the coaches would be Amfleets?
There were sighting this week of 2 LD chargers doing a test run as an advance section of # 3,reports of the chargers slipped on the
grade at Raton.
That test consist was hustled thru ABQ ans sent west to LAUS
A single level Chief?,forget it,passenger load would create a longer single level consist needing double stops at most stations.
The Sunset is a better choice to use a single level consist!
