Amtrak ex-Metroliner Cabcars

Description
Amtrak's 29 cab cars were rebuilt in the late 1980s from the Metroliners that were suffering from unreliable propulsion systems. The cars are very similiar in build to the Amfleets, with a notable difference being the outside bearing trucks.
In their early days, some cars saw duty on the west coast on the San Diegan. These are commonly seen on the Keystone Corridor still.

This mod is a vaguely accurate representation, using the vanilla Metroliner model and added mesh details. It is lacking some handrails, however.
Three cars are included:
#9640 (Phase III) - 1988
#9644 (Phase IV) - 1993
#9641 (Phase VI) - 2003

Soundset includes bells accurate to road number and a K5LA.
Amtrak NEC Stuff 1 is required.
Features modelcitizen's couplers
Assets included.

Some additional mesh details are from Kurt Kaminer's (KLW TrainSim[www.kurtkaminer.com]) MSTS ex-Metroliner cab car.

question: is it supposed to just be a passenger car or a functional cab car?

Do they use these on the Keystone corridor?

For some reason these are my favorite thing on Amtrak's roster. Glad to see they're here, especially the phase 3 version.

Ah I thought I got all the doors correct but I guess not. Yes the 120 mph was leftover from the Metroliners so I've changed that to 125 mph. I also decreased the weight of these things as they were too heavy originally.
