The dome car moved east as part of a special train: 821, 10031 OCEAN VIEW and 90214.
The last time I checked the AAPRCO Facilities Guide, the only privately owned dome that Amtrak will allow on trains 448/449 between ALB and BOS is PPCX 800203 MOONLIGHT DOME, a 1948 Budd product built with a lower profile dome for C&O's Chessie. Apparently there is a very close clearance requirement somewhere between Beacon Park and the bumpers at South Station.
