To upgrade its elderly fleet of cars, some in service since the late 1940s, Amtrak took delivery of its first all-new Amfleet I cars in 1975 for inter-city service in the close clearances of the eastern US. Based on the Budd-built Metroliner, nearly 500 coach and food service cars were delivered by 1978. Starting in 1981, new Amfleet II coaches and lounges were introduced especially for long-distance trains. Both types are still in service today! Like the prototypes, these models are totally new from the rooftops to the rails and come fully assembled, ready for service with: * New Body with: * Correct Profile * Fine Detailed Corrugations * New Trucks with Brake Shoe
