Amtrak Unveils First Passenger Car with Phase VII Livery

Amtrak has unveiled its first passenger car featuring the new Phase VII livery. This modern update reflects Amtrak’s commitment to customer satisfaction and fleet modernization. This was reported by the railway transport news portal Railway Supply.

Amtrak Expands Phase VII Design Beyond Locomotives

Previously exclusive to locomotives, the Phase VII livery now debuts on passenger cars, starting with the Iroquois River. The Viewliner I sleeping car, painted at the Beech Grove facility, is already in Chicago.

The livery features dark blue and red tones separated by white arcs, creating a sleek and modern look. Amtrak added accent colors—red for first class, light blue for business, and green for coach—to help customers navigate platforms easily.

Amtrak Plans to Transition Fleet to Phase VII Livery

Amtrak aims to implement the Phase VII livery across its national fleet while retaining specialty designs for Acela. By next year’s end, 44 cars will carry the new design.

Officials expect 11 cars to adopt the livery within months, with Horizon, Amfleet, and Superliner cars joining later. This transition reflects Amtrak’s efforts to modernize its brand and improve customer experience.
