 Post subject: Amtrak Passenger Siding
PostPosted: Wed Sep 26, 2001 10:01 pm 

To anybody who might know, just what type of metal siding is used on the Superliner coaches and such? I figure it must be stainless steel or aluminum, but would like to know which. Also, when the cars were built, were they shinier then they are now, or have they always been fairly dull. Any info on this subject would be appreciated.

Thanks, Taylor

Superliners, Viewliners and Amfleet cars are stainless steel; Horizon cars are aluminum; most heritage cars are stainless steel.
