Passenger Trains > 98(07)

Well Im onduty in Jax. I have the 145 trail out today behind 173 with a deadhead viewliner right behind the locos. Also have 5 deadhead Superliners on the rear bound for DC from Sanford. 16 cars altogether.

Nothin like putting the weight on the hind end for a great ride! I'm sure you'll do just fine!!

12 years of freight made "worrying" go bye bye along time ago. ;-) Just wanted to let folks know as a mixed low and high level Silver service train doesnt happen too often.

Yeah that is unusual. I was on 97 one year right before the Auto Train started using Superliner equipment and we dropped a few coaches off at Sanford for them. Never experienced it with Superliners though...
