    Oh wait a minute, these are running on the Cascades route? I thought they’d be going with the SC-44 + Talgo Series 8 on those trains.

    I do like the Airo trains though. The designs of modern Amtrak trains just look really nice.

    This is indeed a nice livery. Now just get rid of the original chargers, or update them to the newer nose design.

    The CGI image looks like the Cascades, but the intended routes are for the east coast south of New York, where Amfleets are currently used. The western routes will stick with Superliners.
