Cars arrived Madison, IL on 9/16 from BNSF. Headed to central Kentucky.

Any idea on what the ultimate destination will be?

Thank you in advance.

This move is to a railcar shop in Stearns, KY. Both cars are going there for work. Each is owned by a different party. The Paxrail dome car will likely remain there until she is refurbished enough for short line service. Amtrak-certification is not planned at this point for the dome. Can't speak for the owner of the lounge car.

MRL has no stake in either car.

Arrived Louisville. ETA Stearns 9/28 per NS.
