The original CZ consist left on 3/20/1949.

In the CB&Q Passenger train volume 2 there is a consist from 4/22/49.

Barley a month later.  One might expect a couple of the sleepers to 
be different than the original consist, but it would have seemed 
reasonable that the consist didn't change all that much in a 
month.  After all, the Q wasn't yet utilizing the cars on the AZ.

What is interesting is that the cars for that 4/22 consist came from 
four of the original consists.  In other words, within a month - the 
cars had become completely mixed.  I knew that the trans-con sleeper 
would have been different, and possibly another. But, I couldn't see 
a good reason for (example) the 3 dome coaches to separate within a 
month.  And the signature cars (baggage, lounge, diner, obs) which 
theoretically stayed together longer than most - were from two 
different original consists.  One of those entertaining pieces to 
think about.
