Charlie Warren held this job in the late 50s and he was relieved at Union Station by engine crew for 23 and 24. He gave me a cab ride in 1959 and swore me to secrecy. I had to sneak out the firemans

Oh, I don't know. The RGZ regularly operated with 6 domes and had 7 or 8 cars in the consist. "Regularly" is open to interpretation, but the TCZ was just as "irregular" in those terms. Bob Webber [No
