There is a two car trainset stored on the platform in Washington Union Station with the side sign "Corridor Clipper". The cars are either Amfleet, or maybe ex-Metroliner MUs? One car in the set has a pantograph on the roof.

It's an inspection car. I believe it has an upward-facing window for inspecting the catenary.
