So, research indicates this is the Third car in the CALTRANS / IDOT order for Siemens passenger cars to be used on Amtrak. See page 7 of the below:

Furthermore, VIA Rail placed an order for Siemems cars and locomotives. I would believe this means what VIA receives would be quite similar to what’s seen here.. would this not?
