Thanks for this extra information. There was no reference in either magazine piece to a baggage car being supplied by Pullman with the other equipment.

I thought these sounded familiar, Rupert & I discussed these a year and a half ago. 

Note that, while 4 sets were described, 5 comp[osite cars are listed:
5 Composite Baggage, Buffet, Smoking:
    COLORADO, ILLINOIS, IOWA, MISSOURI, NEBRASKA built 1899   Lot 2410  Plan1400

The 4 Pullman Sleepers:
CHICAGO, BURLINGTON & QUINCY R.R. 4 Sleeper - 12 Section, 1 Drawing Room - G/S -
    DIAMOND, EMERALD, RUBY, SAPHIRE built 1899   Lot 2390 Plan 1318-C.

There were 4 passenger day coaches & 8 passenger chair cars built at this same period -
CHICAGO, BURLINGTON & QUINCY R.R. 8 Chair Cars - No. ????  built 1899   Lot 2460 Plan 1435-D
CHICAGO, BURLINGTON & QUINCY R.R. 4 Passenger  Day Coaches - No. ???? Built  1899   Lot 2461 Plan 1436-B

Assume the baggage cars were existing or built by AC&F or other.
