Re: AMTRAK Sleepers on the head end. Why?

The Empire Builder (when it is running all the way through) ran with sleepers and coaches on both ends. One of the coaches was a coach baggage. Westbound at Spokane the train is split half including the diner going to Seattle, the other half including the lounge going to Portland.

I think sleepers on the head-end or rear-end is more due to switching, operations and maintenance reasons than anything else.
