This probably falls into the silly question area, but....

Most of the photos I have seen show these trains in the mountains. So 
did they start from the East with a smaller number of headend cars and 
pick up & drop off others on the way, or were cars loaded & unloaded as 
needed at various stops?

Thanks,
