Please find a copy of BRHS Bulletin 1 entitled" The Dinkies in Transition" as it will provide some details. Here's a quick response. Suburban trains carried baggage cars to handle newspapers,company material and company mail,etc There were also REA cars going to Aurora and other stations. In the Aurora lodge BRT/UTU files in my possesion there is proof of a xmas time where a solid extra train made roundtrips between Aurora and Chicago handling express and parcels,etc. I hope someday to share that as an article in one of the BRHS pubs. Also in those files are bid sheets for suburban jobs showing trains with 2 or more baggage cars and set outs and pick ups in route.Some were working cars and some were storage cars. There was even a car for bread out of Pepperidge Farm. Then of course there was the wheel car which is pretty unique ;used for loco wheels between Aurora and 14th st. Ever see a photo of a dinkie w/Zephyr cars deadheading to the Aurora shops? How about the Sunday night westbound train with several diesels lashed together elephant style ?
