Amtrak's Pacific Bend Pacific-series sleeper car sports my personal favorite of Amtrak's seven paint schemes, Phase 3. This is a Budd-built sleeper, originally built and delivered to Union Pacific in 1950. It spend roughly 20 years running on UP's "City" trains before being turned over to Amtrak in 1971.
