The cars changed over time - they sometimes were 
a 6-6 and a 10-1-2, sometimes an 8-1-2 - it 
varied depending on year & season.  The 6-6 was 
the 4084-B variety (originally for the Empire 
Builder, rebuilt from 14 section cars, one bought 
by the Q after divestiture (PIERRE 
CHOUTEAU)).  There were two Oriental brass models 
based on these cars - one specifically labeled 
for the 1937 Empire Builder and the other labeled simply 6-6.

Agree, Charlie, worst thing about Strauss's books 
- no index.  And then, very short shrift given to 
non-named trains (often without the specific 
consist as provided the named trains) and 
sometimes without the generic consist of the 
named trains.  Should be a third volume for such.
