HWT PRR sleeper (12-1, either 3410 or 3410A)
1952 Kistler, The Grand Canyon. From Early Diesel Daze.
Because the Grand Canyon was a tremendous tourist attraction, many tour companies chartered Pullman cars for tours. PRR cars were involved in those charters.
PRR 4-4-2 P-S:
Santa Fe Trackside p. 123, 1968, #2 San Francisco Chief at Topeka, including Imperial Loch.
Another view of PRR 8392, Imperial Loch. August, 1966. Paul C. Winters, from PRR Color Guide, Vol. 2.
Imperial Bench, on the SCL at Fayetteville, NC, lDec. 1969. Jack Swanberg, from PRR Color Guide, Vol. 1.
Stagner's Santa Fe in Color Vol. 3, p. 10, 1956 photo of #1 San Francisco Chief at Belen.
Run through sleepers from New York to LA during 1946-53 were Imperial Pass,
Imperial Park, and Imperial Point (Pullman Lot 6540, Plan 4069B).
From the 3/46 to 1953 these would have been two tone gray paint. They had a
dark window band on a light body, with black roofs, silver trucks and silver
gray striping and lettering. The second gray scheme was Pullman painting drawing
D5223 and differed from the first with its black trucks and small PRR at either
end of the letter board. Eastern
Car Works kit 1206 is correct for the 4-4-2 sleeper of PRR. Brass
Car Sides 173-16 and Laser
Horizons 3P442 are the pre-war P-S 4-4-2 Plan 4069 smooth side Imperial
series.
