[QUOTE]Originally posted by smitty195: [QB] Well I'm on-board #14 as I type this. Currently about 10 minutes north of EUG (Eugene, Oregon). I'm in the 1431 sleeper, and it is the 2nd to last car on the train. I love it back here! The horn is not blaringly loud like it is when you're up closer to the front, and you almost never smell the diesel exhaust or burning brakes. I am really enjoying this. The one thing I can't figure out (maybe someone can help me out here): The consist, as noted previsouly, is as follows: Locomotive Locomotive Baggage Trans/Dorm Coach Coach Coach Sightseer Lounge Diner Parlour Car 1430 Sleeper 1431 Sleeper 1432 Sleeper My question is this: Why is the 1432 the last sleeper? They are "backwards" from the way they number them when the sleepers are up front. In other words, the 1432 sleeper is always the forward-most sleeper, located next to the Trans/Dorm. But now that they have moved the sleepers to the rear, the 1432 has become the last car in the consist. Any reason why they are numbered in a different order now? [/QB][/QUOTE]
