Amtrak Adirondack With Great Dome, Plattsburgh, New York

<b>Last Trips North.</b> As P42DC 195 leads Amtrak Train 69 (Adirondack) across the Saranac River on October 29, 2018, the cannot help but focus on the first car and not the power. For the last time, former Great Northern Dome Lounge 10031 (Ocean View, Budd, 1955) would go to Montreal, Quebec from Albany-Rensselaer, New York, returning on Amtrak Train 68 that week. The dome rotated through the Amtrak system, spending it final years mostly on the the Pacific Surfliner, Amtrak Downeaster, Toys For Tots trains, or Office Car Specials. Ultimately, its 3-axle trucks would be cited as a main cause of its removal from the active roster. Today, it operates on the Western Maryland Scenic Railroad in tourist service.
