BNSF 7285 Stack Meets Amtrak #6 w/ Surfliner Car

Are you sure that's the Zephyr? I seem to recall the Southwest Chief being rerouted over the Chilicothe in the aftermath of the snowstorm, and there would be absolutely no reason for a Surfliner car to be on the Zephyr.

As for where the Surfliner is going, it's still an Amtrak car and gets heavy maintainance and overhaul work done at Beech Grove, In. along with the rest of the fleet, so it's likely headed out there for an overhaul.

@Jaanfo And I need to read the details more closely...

Great catch, Bob!  I wonder what a Surfliner is doing in Illinois for?

@GenesisSanctuary Dont know Richard. Have seen it I think two or three times before this 

[GenesisSanctuary]

@fastrains56 I guess maybe it's taken towards Chicago for maintenance, kind of like when the Cascades units are seen on the Empire Builder.
