    What is the typical consist fot the Coast Starlight. I have never really paid attention to the cars but now I want to model them so I need a list. Can anyone help me out? Thanks,

    Well let's see.. last time I went there was
    two baggage cars, a transition sleeper (crew car), three sleepers, one pacific parlour car, one dining car, one observation car, and about six or seven coach cars. Now all of this is Superliner II of course.

    Ryan,
    The standard consit is this, Bag car,dorm car,3 sleepers,parlorcar,diner,lounge,5 coachs and now about 4 to 5 times a week 4 to 5 roadrailers of mail going between Sea and Oak. Have not heard as of yet but usally this consit shrinks to 2 sleepers and 4 coachs in the off season. Also the auto rack idea seems to have been scrapped.
