Title:
AMTK 9401
Description:
In the consist of the eastbound SFZ was Amtrak 9401 "Silver Dome," ex-BN/CB&Q 4714 "Silver Alchemy," the very first dome car. It was built by Budd in 1940 as a flat top coach and rebuilt as a dome car in 1945. Believe the car ahead of it is the "Limona" which was ex-D&RGW 1250, nee-C&O 1877, built by Budd in 1948 for thg "Chessie" streamliner that never was, with a rear diaphragm applied by D&RGW for mid train use as a lounge car.

Dome east
Description:
The only dome Amtrak ran on a regular basis in the east was this car on the Capitol. Almost all the other routes could not clear it, since most of then went to New York, which did not have the clearance for it. Wcshingon Union Station did, and the Capitol riders were blessed with this car, seen eastbound at Point of Rocks.
