Amtrak returns to Vancouver BC
Author: GREENGROCER

i has mentioned in a previous post that I live beside the CN New Westminster subdivision. Amtak had been running training trips at night a few weeks ago. However a northbound Amtrak just went by with a locomotive on each end and four heritage cars in between. Don't know if this was a revenue trip or more training.They had a Charger on the point and ibentified themselves as Amtrak 1401 North. Cheers

That would also be a full consist.  Horizon Cascades trains consist of a club dinette and three coaches.
