I believe the Bulletin being referenced is #8 we just reprinted and is available at the company store.

Louis,

I believe you are right. A search of the company store,Bulletins on the web site should lead to the Bulletin you reference.

Louis,

There is a baggage car 1490 with conductors compartment at the Mid Continent Railroad museum In Barraboo WI.

I have a conductors book from 1955 and there are several listings for the Fast Mail and all had either 1492 or 1493 in the consist.

Leo - IF I remember correctly, rarer as the years wear on....., wasn't there a Bulletin article a couple of years ago about storage mail cars that had rider compartments on one end?  The article was illustrated with photos of the rider compartments.  I think that the article had something to do with the Q's Fast Mail that operated between Omaha and CUS.  This particular article may be of interest to Scott.  Thanks - Louis
