| Hi,
Pardon me if this has been asked before, but does anyone know why Burlington had such an odd way of numbering its passenger trains? From the 1960 timetable:
Denver Zephyr: trains 1 & 10 Chicago-Galesburg coach train: 2 and 15 Ak-Sar-Ben Zephyr: 3 & 30 The Coloradan: 6 & 19 Zephyr-Rocket: 8 & 15 (a different 15)
In that year, Burlington had no trains 4 or 5 (C&S had a train 4, but its trains were numbered separately).
Why not trains 1 & 2, 3 & 4, etc. like most other railroads?
