On the domes roster listed below, the first link for each car will display a photo (in Auto Train livery if available).

The second link on each car will display the history of the car. IF YOU USE THAT LINK, YOU WILL NEED TO USE "back" TO RETURN HERE, as you will be in the middle of the history data for the appropriate originating railroad.

Parenthetical number () following the "sold to" information indicates the number of cars that ended up at that particular destination after the bankruptcy sales.
