Does anyone have any inside info on the Pere Marquette train. What kind of services do they have and what kind of coaches do they have on that train. Thank you for the help.

I believe it's either amfleet or horizon fleet. I'm not even sure if they have a staffed lounge car on the Pere Marquette.

Notelvis is correct, it generally operates with horizon equipment with the exception of holidays when the equipment is usually "borrowed" and replaced with superliner coaches. It is correct that they don't have full cafe service but rather operate with a limited menu out of the coaches "panic box" style.

It basicly means that the attendant sets up shop at a couple of coach seats and proceeds to sell non perishable products and beverages from that location.
