Amtrak’s Great Dome car, a regular feature during fall foliage season on the Adirondack between Albany and Montreal, has been retired.
The two-level passenger car with a glassed-in upper level stretching the length of the car was the last of a fleet of six originally built for the Great Northern Railway’s Empire Builder between Chicago and Seattle in the mid-1950s.
