QUOTE: Originally posted by espeefoamer I rode from Benjamin Hill( in Sonora, Mexico) to Mexicali on an all coach (no lounge or diner) train.This train stopped everywhere, and took all night. This train ran all the way from Guadalajara,to Mexicali( over 1300 miles).Long distance passengers had to buy food that was sold by trackside vendors at the stations.

QUOTE: Originally posted by espeefoamer Heritage coaches were the cars Amtrak recieved from the railroads.These were remodeled to amtrak specifications. They were better(gegerally more comfortable) than Amfleet or Horizon cars.I prefer Amfleet, especially Amfleet 2 (Long distance coaches) to the Horizon Fleet cars.
