All- I can’t lay hands on the Burlington Bulletins at the moment, but I think this was covered in one of them. I seem to recall that the heavyweights were used to make up for the 7200s that were out of service being rebuilt as part of the upgrading to “Suburbanaire” service along with the arrival of the Budd gallery cars. They were used on some of the express runs because they had narrower platforms and steps for loading and unloading. Charlie Vlk From: CBQ@groups.io <CBQ@groups.io> On Behalf Of Dave Lotz

Subject: Re: [CBQ] Poll for The Coach Yard #poll Scott, There were other 6-wheel coaches that carried this paint scheme, but this particular car (4527) is the only one that Coach Yard is considering doing, as it is one of the coaches in the Anniversary trains they are importing. Dave Dave - if this type of coach was not used on the suburban trains, then we probably would not purchase any. The color scheme lead me to think they were actually used on the suburban trains.
Scott & Others, This is a one-of car. This is not the 4-wheel commuter coaches, it is a six-wheel coach Number 4527. Dave We'd be interested in 3 to 6 of the heavyweight coaches for our suburbans.
A new poll has been created: Most of you know that The Coach Yard is going to import the Burlington's Anniversary trains in HO scale brass. It has been discovered that the heavyweight coach No. # 4527 (class PC-9, with Trane a/c) was painted in the suburban green and cream paint scheme. This poll is to find out what interest there may be for them to offer this car as a part of the project. 1. Yes, I'm interested in reserving this car in this paint scheme
2. No, I'm not interested Vote Now _._,_._,_
