AMTK19 with Private Car         
Departing at 9:35am, 2 hours and 7 minutes late, southbound Amtrak train #19, The Crescent, blasts off after a brief station stop in Gainesville, Georgia on Sunday, January 23, 2022. Bringing up the rear is the beautiful Pennsylvania Railroad six-double-bedroom/buffet/lounge car "Catalpa Falls," RPCX #8404/800030. Built by Pullman, the Pennsylvania Railroad ordered "Catalpa Falls" as part of a $21 million order for 214 new cars in May of 1946 and was delivered in May of 1949. The car was intended for the Broadway Limited. The car is now owned by The Catalpa Falls Group, LLC. Power for this edition of The Crescent was AMTK #56 (P42DC) and AMTK #203 (P42DC; 50th Anniversary Operation Lifesaver Inc. unit).
