I too have seen the "coupled" language. In fact BRHS Bulletin 50 which will be coming out in the not too distant future features an order with that language. This order leads me to believe there are two separate extra wests.

5620 and 5617 were 4-8-4 steam engines. Such an order would or might have said Extra 5620 and 5617 coupled west would mean a double header.

Copied verbatim is an order that no 48,no 44 ,first and second 50 received at Savanna,IL on 12/17/42. These are all passenger trains and only 48 stops at only Polo and Oregon. The others make no stops.
Really wonder what extras 5620 and 5617 west were..... See below

"Extras 5620 and 5617 west have right over no 48,no 44,and first and second 50 Flag Center to Savanna Tower.

If a "main" train I thought they got stuck in the "hole" all the time
