Passenger trains operational questions

[NW Mailing List]

Thanks Bill, I had seen photos of trains out of Petersburg with ACL coaches in the mix,  but I'd not seen any with foreign head end cars.

Can we post a copy of that photo here for the group?

One of the Blackhawk slides from back in the 1960s shows a 1950s N&W
passenger train with a purple-and-silver ACL baggage car.
