While the second car was converted to a full baggage, the windows 
stayed the same, so it can still be used.  However, I guess it really 
depends on which four-car consist is used.  The first four-car 
consist had a full coach as the third car, the second had the 
dinette.  It was only after the latter car was added that the second 
car was converted.  Which leads to an interesting, if useless 
question - was it ever configured to five cars?  I really doubt it, 
but the possibility existed.
