Yesterday's Amtrak 97 with 6 baggage cars
Author: RFandPFan

Short video of Amtrak 97 (Silver Meteor) leaving the Amtrak Station at Savannah, Georgia yesterday with a baggage car on the front and five brand-new ones in tow.  Baggage cars are being transported to their Miami (Hialeah) Florida base.

So why is that the front baggage car - the one in use - has to have the door open? I believe there was an explanation given, but I can't remember what it was...........Will this ever be fixed?

Before we left, the baggage got delivered last.  Our conductor was still in their sorting bags. He shut it when he got done.

So the signals at that location have been changed over but the old signals have not been ripped out?  Never seen that before..

They are in the process.  At the next interlocking (Alabama Jct.) the old signals are still in service.
