Check out the video on Moline Illinois planned passenger station.
The architect's drawing is interesting. The train drawn as arriving at the station looks like a Budd RDC car.

Also, is that a scheduled Amtrak long distance train coming through Moline, or is it being detoured?

Looks more like a SEPTA Silverliner of some sort to me
It is a General Electric/Avco Silverliner IV, from SEPTA as noted.
That must be just for a photo. They are not going to s tring catenary, at least for some time yet!
Or will these be de-motored trail cars with a diesel push-pull?
The Rock Island Rockets were far more appealing to the eye.
