How many Cars does the Amtrak Train Route Carolinian have adding the Passager Cars and Baggage Cars?

 

[Amfleet]

A normal consist would go like this:

P-42

Horizon Dinette

Amfleet I Coach

Amfleet I Coach

Amfleet I Coach

Amfleet II Coach (for Business Class)

I don't beleive the Carolinian has a baggage, mail, or express cars.

The Carolinian DOES have a baggage car. The timetable indicates Checked Baggage is advailable!

Well with all those mountains down there, they just wanted to be able to see what's on the Horizon. :lol:

Hmm Alan brings up a question in my mind, why did they name them Horizon Cars?! Those are the only cars that I dont really understanding the meaning behind the naming.
