Superliner (railcar)

   

The Superliner is a largely disabled-accessible double decker luxury railcar used by Amtrak, on mainly its western routes. They come in coach, baggage coach, diner, lounge, coach cafe, sleeper, and transition car/dorm configurations. Trains using Superliners include the Capitol Limited, Auto Train, Sunset Limited, Texas Eagle, California Zephyr, Southwest Chief, Empire Builder, Coast Starlight, and Pacific Surfliner.

Many of the cars in this fleet were based on cars designed and owned by the Santa Fe railroad. The Santa Fe used these cars on their premier passenger trains such as the Super Chief and El Capitan.
