Locos-cars: I agree. That would be sharp

Early Amtrak freight RR operation: That would have been a nearly impossible sell, considering the railroads were begging to get out of the business. I doubt they would have wanted any arrangement that continued their involvement providing passenger service beyond the NRPC arranged access rights, even if it was only to haul the train just like any other. There may be a few exceptions outside the NEC like Rock Island, Milwaukee Road, etc.
