In late 1971, I rode an early Amtrak train from Oakland to Chicago. I had a coach ticket, but I ended up being the only one who slept in one of the dome cars, so I spent most of the two days up there. They are great places from which to take pictures, as your pictures show.{I was really grumpy when Amtrak decided to end the concept}
