Empire Builder #8 rolls by Westfield Golf Course with 4 Private cars in tow. A big thank you to Seaboard92 for the heads up on this.

The train is very noisy today, not sure if that's flange squeal or what?

The cars are: 2 Milwaukee Road cars, the "Wisconsin Valley" and a Superdome, name unknown. Also the "Fox River Valley", and the California Zephyr car "Silver Palace".

 
The super domes name is Super Dome. All of the cars should return the first week of November. Going to be split across two days again in order to avoid the extra locomotive charge. We aren't receiving any more cars off the Empire Builder. We do have one car coming off the Southwest Chief. I think everything else we've received already. I'm not on new River this year I was scheduled to but a family emergency keeps me home this year. Now not next month but next November (2019) I would expect multiple trains of PVs on the rear of the builder. But other then that can't comment further.
