Very little has been announced about the progress of the cars. Have there have been any construction photos? The only reference that AMTRAK gives is in the fleet strategy report ( April 2012 ) that states the first car will be delivered September 2013 with majority ( 65 + ? ) in service in 2014. Does CAF have any items ?
Anyone remember what the original delivery dates were when contract let ? This is the only reference I found which indicates at least an 11 mmonth delay.

I ask the same question a few months ago and got no response.
Came across this from CAF and will add it to original post
Interesting, but I saw nothing as to how the building is progressing.
