Bob - This consist information would be very helpful, in my opinion. As
you wrote, it would be nice to expand these consists beyond the early
60's information in the book Leo mentions.

Thanks, Leo - I wasn't aware of that book. Do you have any idea
where it can be found? While I can use those for the
presentations
and the articles, what I really need are pre-1949 consist
information
that would show "typical" consists of the Aristocrat, Exposition
Flyer and other such E/W trains. I'll see if I can find the
book,
thanks! Bob
