Train Consist
The Hoosier State generally operates with two coaches, generally Horizon equipment, but occasionally supplemented by Amfleet cars. Power is a General Electric Genesis P42DC locomotive. There are no food-service cars because the train offers only coach-class service. However, the train often carries cars to and from Amtrak's repair facility at Beech Grove.

Famous quotes containing the words train and/or consist:
“The train was crammed, the heat stifling. We feel out of sorts, but do not quite know if we are hungry or drowsy. But when we have fed and slept, life will regain its looks, and the American instruments will make music in the merry cafe described by our friend Lange. And then, sometime later, we die.”
—Vladimir Nabokov (1899–1977)
“Sir Toby Belch. Does not our life consist of the four elements?
Sir Andrew Aguecheek. Faith, so they say, but I think it rather consists of eating and drinking.
Sir Toby Belch. Thou’rt a scholar; therefore let us eat and drink.”
—William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
