Was with my son waiting for NJT at Metropark and an Amtrak train passed through North at about 445pm and the first car was a private PRR car. I think I saw Colonial Crafts on it But was not sure. Camera app loaded too slow to catch a picture of it. It wasn’t an observation car either."Colonial Crafts" is the name of an active Private Car.
Thanks

Unless no spare Amfleet I cars were available.

Food and beverage service was provided from an Amfleet II cafe lounge car.
