Railroads have had 'hotel power' at terminals for decades. The elders among us will recall that in the pre-Amtrak era, you could board a sleeper at a terminal well before your departure time. As far as HVAC goes, it's not like you're going to restart those locos minutes before the train is due. Restart an hour before the departure time, that's plenty of time for the HVAC to make the car comfortable. |
