Is it possible that one of the class 1(one) railroads could run an extra to do this?

A few thoughts:

1) Where would any of the "class1 railroads" obtain the necessary passenger cars for such an event?

2) Would a "class 1 railroad" really expect their employees to volunteer for such an event?

3) Would a "class 1 railroad" really want to take on such a large liability?

 

I'm not surprised that Amtrak backed out of this event, as they tried to get out of last years event also, thus this comes as no surprise.
