Lenny, The K Line had a very similar arrangement.  It was called the FISH TRAIN, A train departed St Louis Friday eve and dropped passengers off at the many fishing and hunting resorts north of St Louis.  The coaches were left at Elsberry and the power returned south to Old Monroe where coaling facilities were.  On Sunday afternoon the Power ran up to Elsberry and picked up the coaches and then proceded to pick up passengers at their resorts to take them back to St Louis.  Turn of the century timetables list many of these lakes and resorts.  Archie

Another thought would be the P-Vine running from Ft. Madison to Stockport, Iowa. Small steam such as K-2 or SW-1 diesel.
There is a book called " Remembering Southeast Iowa's Peavine" by Michael R. Johns. 

On Friday nights a coach was added to the rear end and dropped off at West Point where there was a fish fry. On the return trip 
from Stockport the coach would bepicked up and all the folks who were tippey were taken back to Ft. Madison.

Light weight rail, cinder ballast, weeds up to the edge. Stockport was the biggest customer on the line.
