Passenger Trains > Train 98(21) had two diners

Photographed on Wednesday (Nov 22) from SEPTA's Tacony station in Philadelphia.
13 cars: five coaches, cafe, diner, four sleepers, bag, and another diner, presumably deadheading

1. ACS-63 623
2. Photo wasn't sharp enough to identify the diner, but I'm guessing that it was AMTK 68005 "Boston". Correction is welcomed.
3. AMTK 68001 :Annapolis"

I have always wondered what a complete Viewliner train would look like. This is the biggest collection of them together in one train I have seen. BSB

Nearly the same consist on today's number 98 as seen in Virginia making it's way north

5 coaches / cafe / viewliner diner / 4 viewliner sleepers / baggage

Will be interesting to see if the Amfleet II's on the Long Distance Trains will ever be replaced by a low density / long distance coach of sorts and what that will look like (similar design to what the Midwest and California single level car order?).

Maybe if Amtrak had order Viewliner Style Coaches and Lounge cars.

Maybe that would happen. But I dont think Amtrak is going to add Coaches and Lounges
