May I ask where you got those Tank cars in the First shot?

are you going to allow reskins or make the new upholstered seats? either way these look fantastic.

 

[LandShark229]

I'm planning on bringing the interior up to date with the current superliners. A recent trip on the Coast Starlight has given me a good amount of info on them, so reskinning will bring it pretty close to that.

I'm tempted to experiment with some scripting to see if I can toggle the direction that the seats are facing (superliner coach seats can be rotated 180° for return trips if need be)

It looks like you used the Horizon interior there... which is missing one major part, the central stairway area. There is a really nicely modeled coach interior for the Superliners; but it is technically payware.

Just an FYI, the interior you have pictured is actually the old interior style not the new one. And also almost all Amtrak coach seats can swivel around, not just the Superliner ones.

How do they swivel? I was just on a Northeast Regional (1st time on Amtrak!) and I saw some swiveled seats and wondered how they turned around.

Well aware of all of those, Peter. I haven't yet started on the interior, so I am exploring multiple options for them. When I said the "new superliners" I am talking about the overhaul that took place between 2000 and 2008 for every superliner car.

Somewhere on the C&O Hinton Devision.

Apparently the C&O electrified and then decided to repaint their passenger stock into neon colors!

I like it Matt.
