That's what the Q called the modernized 4520 and 6160 series chair cars that were originally shadowlined -- painted in a Simulated Stainless Steel scheme.  The moniker stuck even after the shadowlining was gone.

No one car was assigned to the run, and cars were regularly rotated in and out of the consists of both 29-30 and 42-43.  Both SSS and standard "black" (actually olive green) cars of the 4500 and 6100 series were employed on these trains.

Classic Trains did an article on the Q/C&S trains 29 & 30 with photos of a SSS car on the rear.  Does anyone happen to know what car number was 'usually" used? John Trulson
