Until noon today the 4 cars (at least that's the consist now) were
sitting on Iowa Interstate tacks behind Meredith Publ - will then
continue west. Per article in today's DM Register the cars are owned
by Quad Graphics of Sussex, Wis. (Names are as they are now - am not
at home to ck my rosters to see if these are original Q names or ones
changed to when cars remodeled) The cars are: ex-CZ dome obsv S.
Chalet, ex-S. Shore diner (this I know is a made-up new name), S.
Express (ex baggage) and S. Lodge (sleeper). At least the names are
all "silver"! The article had 3 color pics - the S. Chahel has the
obsv part remodeled to where it's still a boattail but is open air!
The baggage car has a 14' stainless steel bar. Quad Graphics began
acquiring the set of cars in "87 & uses them for customers and their
own mgt. Gerald
