Amtrak ordered the Amfleet II cars in early 1980 for use on long-distance overnight routes. Built by the Budd Company at its Red Lion Plant in northeastern Philadelphia, the 125 coaches and 25 food service cars were similar in exterior appearance to their Amfleet I predecessors, but included only one vestibule and were modified on the interior for a more spacious layout. Coach No. 25037 shown in this image wears the Phase III paint scheme introduced in 1979.
