Coach Type 2

This type of American passenger car is a bi-level coach, also known as a double-decker passenger car. Designed to maximize passenger capacity, it features two seating levels connected by an internal staircase. Large windows on both decks provide excellent views, making these cars especially popular on commuter and intercity routes. Bi-level coaches have been widely used by several American railroads since the mid-20th century, offering a practical combination of increased seating capacity and passenger comfort.
