I worked with a gentlemen at the Omaha Amtrak station in 1977-78 who had come
to Amtrak as a District Manager after a prior career with Union Pacific.
Working as Passenger Representative for UP during the sixties, he would
accompany tour groups travelling in multiple Pullmans from other railroads to
destinations such as Sun Valley, etc.
There is a run-by in the video "Chicago Odyssey" of the westbound "Denver
Zephyr" photographed by Emery Gulash showing a few PRR and UP Pullmans behind
the baggage car and accompanied by an extra CB&Q diner before the DZ Chair
Coaches and the rest of the consist. Possibly a western tour group!
