  1. ALP 46 / DB Class 101
  2. ACS-64 / Vectron
  3. Acela Express / TGV Duplex
  4. Avelia Liberty / SNCF TGV M
  5. AEM-7 / SJ Rc4
  6. RTG Turboliner / SNCF Class T 2000
  7. HHP-8 / SNCF Class BB 36000

I find it interesting that a lot of passenger locomotives in the US are inspired from their counterparts in Europe, and I'd like to appreciate their similar design. What are your thoughts?

It was super cool. Saw tons of wildlife, great views, nice relaxing ride, and got to learn about a flagstop line. Basically, there are people who live out in the literal middle of nowhere, and they can come down to the track, wave a flag when the train comes by, and it stops to pick them up. Also drop them off when they are going home from shopping or whatever. Anyways, it was a trip FROM Anchorage to Fairbanks, headed up to see the Northern Lights, and we did! I would go back up just to take this train ride though, it was fun.

Last 2 pictures show the diagram and livery for the low-cost service Avlo, all in 3+2 configuration with no bar coach (instead using vending machines throughout the train). Normal AVE services will run 2+2 on first class and 3+2 on standard class, with a bar coach shown in picture 6. For 3+2 rows, Renfe’s website will prioritise booking window and aisle seats by default before occupying middle seats. Image 7 can be used to judge seat size, especially for 3-row seats.
