Will anyone give a brief synopsis of the history of Burlington Route 
dining car silver service markings? For instance, early stuff seems to 
have had the well-known Burlington Route square logo on the side and 
later stuff seems to have had the "BR" (with a backward B) on a side. 

This begs a number of questions: e.g., were the sides ever decorated 
any other way, when was the changeover from one style to another, did 
any of the silver service have the designation "Chicago, Burlington & 
Quincy", or "Colorado & Southern", or "Fort Worth & Denver" (or their 
abbreviations" on the bottom) whenever the Burlington Route square 
logo was used on the side, etc.

Esoteric information to be sure but it is interesting, especially to 
the collector.
