Yes there were. I never said who was on the train because I didn't know yesterday. It's still a "private charter" and a "special train" according to my source and he was on the train riding in the car yesterday.

She is a well traveled car!! I saw it in Spokane, WA being pulled by 4449 on the 4th of July.

It's a beautiful car outside but is 100X better inside. I had the priveledge to ride on it when it was on the 1st Northern Arrow. It's awesome going thru a town on the rear end and waving to everybody while eating an ice cream bar.

The first Northern Arrow had the Georgia 300 in place of the CH.

CH was there the second year.

And they both were very nice on the interior. Eating lunch was awesome on the 300

. Best conductor gigs I've had

Sorry it was the second. My old fart moment for the day!

OK so i've ridden on both previous trips, and one was the Georgia 300 and the other the Chapel Hill. I couldn't remember what the order was but hey, i had a 50/50 chance of being right. Both are nice on the inside aand ride nice and smooth.

Very nice looking car. http://www.chapelhillrail.com

You don't have to be Bill Gates rich - just multi-millionair rich:

"•Travel in style across America — 6 guests — starting at $6,000 per day."

That's only $1,000/person/day - anyone wanna go on a joy ride and split the cost?

Or for about the same price I could have a week-long railfan vacation anywhere in the Midwest. Really, that's a tough call...
