Silver Lariat seats up to 60 guests at tables in 3 room areas for formal dining. We have retained the comfortable reclining chairs and deep cushion dome chairs throughout, making this a car you’ll want to spend both dining and non-dining hours in.

Silver Lariat is equipped with a CD sound system, public address, and audio-video presentation capabilities.

The mural by Mary Lawser is original, and one of the very few surviving the Amtrak era.  We had it cleaned and restored by a professional conservator in 1988.  In this end of the car’s main floor there are 12 seats at dining tables.

The dome is a wonderful area for viewing the passing scenery, both daytime and nighttime.  24 seats are arranged around 6 tables for cocktails or dining.
