RE: [CBQ] DZ & KCZ Obs Question

Air connections would have been needed anyway on the rear for switching.  Even 
the Silver Flash and Silver Streak, DZ version 1 observation cars, had both 
hoses at the end after they added the coupler.

      blunt end obs were also built specifically to be able to go mid train, so

air connections would be needed

Hi All,



Hol received the following question in the mail from BRHS member Brian

Moore:



"I'm researching Burlington blunt end observation cars. Can someone tell me

why they carried the tail hose attached to the train line air when the

"Silver Tower," "Silver Veranda," etc., had air brake controls."



Anybody have an answer?
