I think the answer to your second question is yes, but I'll need to root
around my photo files a bit to say for sure. I have quickly located one shot
from 1970 showing one of the cars freshly painted for M of W service. Another
from the same photo series shows Burlington trailers on TOFC flats but no
ex-troop cars in the Oregon yard, so I presume they were no longer used
servicing
Kable by then.
You also might want to post your query to the list. I left Oregon in 1964
and made brief summer visits 1965-68 and 1970. There's at least one listee
(from Mount Morris?) who is real familiar with Kable operations.
Regards,
Bill
