Ray-

The cars in question are the following:
2 Cars, Lot 9641-169,  Pullman Plan 9539, Ordered 2/55, Delivered 8/56-9/56
6 Bedroom, 5 Compartment Sleeper
CB&Q 453 Silver Swan                        to AMTRAK 2203 in 1971
CB&Q 454 Silver Pelican                     to AMTRAK 2204 in 1971

  I just picked up a floor plan for a Stainless passenger car and would like 
some help to identify which cars this relates to.

  I have searched all my records, books, documents, etc, and can not identiy 
the cars.

  It is for a Pullman Sleeping Car, Plan No. 9539 Issue A, a 6 double bedrooms 
- 5 compartments sleeper.

  It shows as Lot 9641-169 and that "2 cars" were built to this plan. The 
drawing is Budd Co. A-42-04464 that would have been built in 1955, as the 
"Traced" date is 9-23-55.

  If anyone can identify the car names, number and on which train they were 
assigned, I would appreciate it. The closest I can come up with is perhaps on 
the CZ. 

  Thanks,
