Nice book. I recommend it. Great prototype photos and detailed diagrams. I picked it up primarily in anticipation of the GGD Harriman passenger cars. I knew I would have to accept the interpretation, but I wanted to see how close they'll be to actual UP.
GGD based the coaches on the SP 60-C-5. As common standard arch-roof they look very close to the UP Chair cars, the observation not so much. Have to see the actual models for more comparison.
That poor centennial car has seen better days. It's sitting at the Ogden, Utah UP depot. I wish it had been preserved.
