The car is used by Amtrak for Company(inspection) use only.It is never open to public and runs on any train nation wide as needed. The other odd one is Geometry Car 10002 without a balcony but with windows in back, camera pod on roof and Pantograph for Catenary tracking, the Pantograph is non electrical functioning (not hooked up) |

Sorry I missed you Fred, but the train stopped with car off the platform and I figured you would be set up on the island instead of the side platform.Hey, how long has the entire Shore Line been under construction??? My train was constantly single tracking for one project or another. |

I guess I don't count as a member of the public when the brass riding Beech Grove gave me a walk-through. They were having quite the enjoyable experience, of course who wouldn't given the amenities. |

I remember 10001 going up and down the NEC during the 80s. Didn't know what it was then; thought it was a special car for a premium fare. |

The sun was better from the side plat and there was a southbound Regional which got there earlier than your train but I didn't want to chance being blocked by him.Pattagansett River, NAN, Thames River and Stonington Harbor bridges are all being worked on and there's all kinds of single tracking and reverse railing going on. Yesterday, all trains were an hour late getting into New London from New Haven and the 18:03 SLE train departed around 7 to head westbound. How bad were you delayed getting into BOS? your pal, Fred |

While I might disagree with your interpretation of reality I would never call you a liar. I guess you can't believe I wouldn't act like a douche shoving a camera in people's faces after getting a behind the scene's invite. |

Some of the folks were on the platform and I asked if there were any VIPs on board and they told me whom them were picking up and if I'd like a walk-through. |
