When I was on 98 last Sunday we got a stop signal on the main line as 89 went in siding. I was able to catch the number of the Business Class Car, and it was 26026. Whether this is a regular business car on the Palmetto, I don't know, as I've only ridden it twice. Just thoguht you guys would like to know that.
 
26026 is a Concept 2000 Coach that has four seats removed on the B end (I think I got that right) for an installation of a larger restroom. The total capacity is 55 instead of 59.

B-51, do those cars say Business Class on the side or just Coach?
 
It was kind of hard to get a picture of it as it was going in siding and I was on 98, didn't exactly have the camera ready. I couldn't tell whether the markings on it said Coachclass or otherwise, but I'll keep my eyes peeled (I'll also ask a friend of mine who works it from JAX to LAK to check it out for me).
