GN observation 1196, named City of Spokane brightens up a gray July day in Seattle at King St. Station. The car had come in as a charter on an Amtrak train.

Amtrak's Empire Builder gets special car "City of Spokane" for its rear on a nice day in May 1994. The eastbound train is just leaving Seattle for Spokane and points east.

GN 1196 lettered City of Spokane brings up the rear markers on Amtrak's Empire Builder as it leaves Seattle on a sunny spring evening.
