Hi all,
Last night I was watching one of the Allen Keller "Great Model Railroads"
videos on Chuck Hitchcock's ATSF layout, the (fictitious) Argentine
Division of the Santa Fe set in Kansas. He focuses his operations on
passenger trains and their switching. At one point, he mentions (and the
video shows) non Santa Fe express and mail cars (box & baggage) in a
passenger train consist which he says the actual ATSF brought out west from
points east of Chicago. I believe the cars were from the Pennsy, NYC, and
one other non-ATSF road.
So I was wondering if the CB&Q had similar foreign road cars in their
passenger trains for the same or other reasons.
Anyone? Thanks!
