Amtrak Charger Long Distance Test Train

Amtrak operated a extra (empty) train on January 28, 2020 with a variety of horizon, viewliner and superliner equipment.

Known as train A-919-1-28A, it was a test run of the Siemens SC-44 Chargers in long distance service. Amtrak has ordered long distance variations of the Chargers (ALC-42s) due to being service in 2021 to replace the long-time GE Genesis locomotives.

The train was running ahead of the regular service Amtrak 7/27 from Chicago through North Dakota, then followed 7/27 the rest of the way to Seattle.
