  • Bilevel Rail Car - Wikipedia
    Bilevel rail car - Wikipedia https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bilevel_rail_car Bilevel rail car The bilevel car (American English) or double-decker train (British English and Canadian English) is a type of rail car that has two levels of passenger accommodation, as opposed to one, increasing passenger capacity (in example cases of up to 57% per car).[1] In some countries such vehicles are commonly referred to as dostos, derived from the German Doppelstockwagen. The use of double-decker carriages, where feasible, can resolve capacity problems on a railway, avoiding other options which have an associated infrastructure cost such as longer trains (which require longer station Double-deck rail car operated by Agence métropolitaine de transport platforms), more trains per hour (which the signalling or safety in Montreal, Quebec, Canada. The requirements may not allow) or adding extra tracks besides the existing Lucien-L'Allier station is in the back line. ground. Bilevel trains are claimed to be more energy efficient,[2] and may have a lower operating cost per passenger.[3] A bilevel car may carry about twice as many as a normal car, without requiring double the weight to pull or material to build. However, a bilevel train may take longer to exchange passengers at each station, since more people will enter and exit from each car. The increased dwell time makes them most popular on long-distance routes which make fewer stops (and may be popular with passengers for offering a better view).[1] Bilevel cars may not be usable in countries or older railway systems with Bombardier double-deck rail cars in low loading gauges.

  • ON the OLYMPIAN HIAWATHA and on the TWIN CITIES HIAWATHAS It's Long, Luxurious and All Yours
    RoadJ A S ON THE OLYMPIAN HIAWATHA AND ON THE TWIN CITIES HIAWATHAS It's long, luxurious and all yours. Everyone aboard the Hiawathas is cordially invited to come up into the Super Dome for a brand new outlook over some of our country's most delightful scenery. What is your pleosure-a soft drink, a sandwich, a cocktail? Nome it ond it's yours in the delightful Cafe Lounge. Placed on the lower deck of the Super Dome car, this room is well below normal floor level. Since the 1935 inaugural run of the first Twin Cities HIAWATHA between Chicago, Milwaukee and St. Paul-Minneapolis, these Milwaukee Road speed­ liners have consistently ranked among America's favorite traips. The Hiawatha fleet has grown in numbers and has been improved again and again. All of these trains are outstanding in offering the general qualities of speed, smoothness, silence and beauty that help make travel delightful. With scores of engineering innovations to their credit, the Hiawathas have also pioneered significant advances in car design. Among these-and still unique features of Milwaukee Road Speedliners-are glass-enclosed Sky­ top Lounges, and the exclusive Touralux sleepers that combine berth comfort and privacy with lower cost. Beginning with the 1st of January 1953, the Olympian HIAWATHA and the Twin Cities HIAWATHAS are again presenting something brand new, different and delightful-the Super Dome cars pictured and described for you in this brochure. Giant electric locomotives are used for 656 mountain miles. Almost entirely enclosed in glass and rising 15}/z famous Dells, the "driftless area" with its rocky feet above the rails, the Super Dome is a glorious outcrops, the palisaded valley of the mighty observation point.
