Re: [CBQ] NCL Consist North of Savanna, IL 1961

Tom:

The height of the car and its roofline makes me think it's Q office car The Round-Up, which would be placed up front rather than behind the round-end observation car.  Until 1969 the Q was always very considerate of its passengers and almost never placed its office cars behind observation cars where they would interfere with the passengers' view.

The following slide of the NCL just north of Savanna, IL in 1961 showed up on eBay (I have no connection with the seller): https://www.ebay.com/itm/307096014095

 

What struck me was the silver car just behind the baggage cars. I guess it could be a NP Slumbercoach since they arrived in 1959 for use on the NCL, but the placement seemed a bit odd. So I thought I would throw this one out to the group.
