Or is the manufacturer picking up the tab as a concession to the lateness of delivery?

No wisecracks about ongoing AC problems with the cars already delivered? Date: 09/13/17 06:56 Re: Diner Columbus on the roll Author: Lackawanna484 aehouse Wrote:

I'm waiting to see when the new diners begin a regular cycle with Crescent. That's a good indicator they're ready for system-wide service. They've been limited to 97/98. so far. Is this the first "one off" diner, or was Albany a one off delivery, too? Thanks for the great pictures!

Date: 09/13/17 18:27 Re: Diner Columbus on the roll Author: R30A Albany never came out on its own, but it never had another diner. It came with sleeper 62500 Portage River and a dorm both times it was delivered. (The dorm was 69000 the first time, 69001 the second.)
