RE: [CBQ] NYC sleeping car on CZ

[Frederick Ripley <fjr68@live.com>]

Bill says:

 

"The Pennsylvania Rail Road owned 6-5 sleeping car Silver Shadow for use on the California Zephyr.  I read that the Pennsy and New York Central alternated delivering sleepers from Chicago through to New York, so, my question is, did the New York Central own a sleeper, as the PRR did?  I can't imagine the NYC carrying a sleeper labeled "PRR", their arch-rival, on one of their trains."

Bill and List,

The PRR car was a 10-6, "Silver Rapids", in full "CZ" lettering with "PRR" on the end letterboards (till 

the through service ended in 10/57, after which it remained in PRR service and eventually lost the CZ

lettering.

I'm away from my TT's at the moment, but this is an interesting question about which I look forward to seeing

what I can find, and what others say.
