Bob - CB&Q October 1899 public tt lists No. 1 Denver Special, with
sleeping, dining, library and chair cars Chicago-Denver. And No. 3
Denver Limited, with sleeping, dining and chair cars Chicago-Denver as
were their eastbound counterparts.

In my book, the 4th edition of HIGH PLAINS ROUTE, a classic 192 page
hard bound book covering the history of the former CB&Q McCook Division,
it mentions prior to dining car service railroad owned eating houses
were provided at Red Cloud, Holdrege, Oxford, McCook and Akron. The book
also has excellent photos of the early day passenger trains: No. 1, the
Denver Special stopped at Holdrege circa 1901, behind B&MR 4-6-0 No. 27
is a mail car, baggage and combine ahead of the passenger cars. Since
the first edition of HIGH PLAINS ROUTE in 1986, I figured every CB&Q fan
had purchased a copy.  Bill Glick's BURLINGTON PASSENGER CAR PHOTO ALBUM
published 2007 offers ample coverage of the cars and trains.
