Interesting, but I saw nothing as to how the building is progressing.

Comments ?
I ask the same question a few months ago and got no response.
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.
