- Did the Q retain Pullman car names when they relettered heavyweights from Pullman to Burlington? The books I have access to list both car names and car numbers, but were both names and numbers used o

- Nelson, The Q did not re-letter Pullman sleepers to "Burlington" on the letterboard as long as the cars were in Pullman lease. The Walthers sleepers are incorrect. When cars were withdrawn from Pullm

- The heavyweight sleepers acquired by the Q in 1948 did not carry both their CB&Q numbers and their Pullman names at the same time. Those that got the Q numbers generally simply had Pullman painted o

- Nelson, Lettering of the "name trains" happened way earlier than the time period you are talking about. They are a whole other story! The Walthers cars used the Ribbon-style lettering. The Pullman sl

- Nelson, To the best of my knowledge, Ak Sar Ben on the letterboard would not have lasted until 1948. Omaha Club is not a Pullman sleeper. It's an Observation - Lounge. That is why I have been very ca
