Berlin and America on Amtrak #6 Friday
Author: Agent

On Friday, I caught the eastbound California Zephyr at Agency, Iowa with two private cars.

1) Amtrak #6 rounding the curve running left-handed.  The train will pass three eastbound BNSF trains between here and Beckwith, Iowa.

2) AMTK 4 and 11 on the front of the train.

3) Private cars RPCX 2263 Berlin and New York Central America.  I think its number is PPCX 800086.

We spotted the Berlin car on the head end of #3 in Barstow last Sunday (7/28). Guessing it wasn’t occupied and took the Coast Starlight to Oakland.

PV America has been in Los angeles for several years.  It was part of an estate and formerly belonged to the owner of the LA Rams, then was sold several times..  The car has been donated to a museum in the Midwest.
