Depends what part of the journey you're recreating, as the Milwaukee Road cars were Friends of 261 cars that 4449 picked up in Minneapolis when headed east (and dropped off heading back west). 4449 spent several days in Minneapolis both times it came through.
BTW I believe the third Milwaukee Road car was the Minnesota River sleeping car, but not sure?
I was on the 4449 trip from Minneapolis down the Mississippi to LaCrosse WI and back that they did while 4449 was in the Twin Cities. Doesn't get much better than that - a classic steam engine running on a well-maintained mainline at speed.
