While there was a thread on the Besler car before, a friend just sent me a the 
following link to a Besler film showing a single unit car in a Budd-built 
carbody demonstrating on the CB&Q in 1934.  While the T&P Micheline two-unit 
car preceded this, this previously mostly unremarked car, built at the 
Davenport, IA Besler plant and demonstrated on the CB&Q certainly is 
interesting especially in light of the CB&Q building the Pioneer Zephyr in 1934.

      Besler was involved with at least one steam powered railcar, along the 
general line of gas-electric powered railcars, and at least one automobile. A 
two car railcar set was on the New Haven.  A stainless steel experimental car 
was built at the Davenport-Besler plant and tested on the CB&Q.
