train that was predominantly head end mail cars with RPO (sometimes), baggage,
coaches, diner and sleeper(s) in heavy weight form. The Pocahontas was
the sleeper train with baggage cars, mail cars, and <st1:place w:st="on">Pullman</st1:place>
sleepers, coaches and diner in heavy weights. After late December
1949 the Powhatan Arrow had light weight streamlined cars of the P1, P2, P3,

head end cars were added after the Cavalier was cut back at the end of April
1958.<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>

I was just wondering about what types were on them, like were they heavy
weight types or lite weight and what did they have in them? i wasn't too
concerned about the area where they ran. I did however think about the
area around or past <st1:City w:st="on">Roanoke</st1:City> or <st1:place
w:st="on">Crewe</st1:place>. Its just a thought. This basement is calling me
to put a model railroad down there. 3 Js need something to haul. I do
have another question about K-1s were they passenger lcos or did they do
both? tony <br>

style='font-size:12.0pt'>Tony: Depends on what year you wish to model
for each train. Plus the<br>
consists were not constant as cars were added/subtracted due to business<br>
level changes and routing changes. PLUS, where on the system you wish
to<br>
model becomes important as to what was in the consist at that location as<br>
Pullman cars were added or taken off, mail storage cars were added/taken off<br>
and so on. <br>
<br>
What do you have in mind? Note that the Powhatan Arrow had P1, P2, P3's
and<br>
a P4 lightweight consist with a D1 diner after January 1950 but not for all<br>
that long. Heavyweight head end cars were used west of
Williamson after<br>
the Cavalier was cut back and the mail stuff transferred to the Arrow.<br>
TLC's/Tom Dixon's new book on the ARROW is informative.<br>
