Of course, the Zephyr, as all Budd built trains, is stainless steel, not aluminum.

From the article, it sounds as if it does not have trucks. True?

This seems like the perfect opportunity to point out that "TrolleyIra" has ridden all incarnations of the Zephyr, including the Flying Yankee.

So are Granite City Passenger Terminal, Railway Experience Partners, and Gateway Rail Services all the same people? According to what I've read Gateway Rail Services rehabs 20+ passenger cars per year.
