The Royal Gorge cars are mostly ex-VIA cars. The last Ski Train consist was sold to some outfit in Canada. This train will be operated by the Amtrak extra board. Since it is an Amtrak train it will be run under the Amtrak insurance policy, which is a better deal than what a private company could get.
