Charlie,

Thanks.

If you're interested go to bullmoosebar.com  then to history for the owners,spin on the heritage of the car and it's tie to Teddy Roosevelt. Some of their dates match Hol's comments. Regardless of their accuracy,  it's still a pretty neat place for a Q fan to grab a meal.

Leo-

 

I recall some reference to “The Pride of the Burlington” moniker being applied to the Zephyr Diner carbody in Sandwich, IL when I stopped there in the late 60’s.  It seems to me that they had a picture of the car on display and it was a coach. 

I do not believe the car has anything to do with the “Isabella”; more likely the car was a coach from the Burlington Limited c. 1897.   Durbin’s article in More Classic Trains  The Finest Trains on Earth first appeared in Trains Magazine does not have a complete list of cars for the two consists but lists the following cars that could be candidates for the diner:

 

Buffet-Library-Smoking-Baggage Cars Minneapolis and St. Paul

Day Coaches Winona and Savanna

Chair Cars Alma and Maiden Rock CB&Q #369

16 Section Sleepers Parthenon and Pantheon

Compartment Cars Angelo and Apollo 

Observation cars were Wisconsin CB&Q 304 and likely Minnesota CB&Q 302

 

Bill Glick’s Passenger Car Roster may have more info; right at the moment I can’t lay hands on my copy.
