I have two Lionel Amtrak Alcos & a string of about 3-4 of the 027 passenger cars from the early 90's. It looks like the vintage car you have is from an even earlier release of cars that had only red & blue stripes. The early 90's locos & cars had red-white-& blue striping & car names: Danbury, Lake Worth, Silver Dome, New Smyrna.. & maybe one or two more. The #4453 car you have with the ribbed sides was of much later production (2005-2012??) & may not match your others well.. but then not all of Amtrak's cars always matched, either! Enjoy!
