Darn tootin'! Now THAT is a DOME CAR. We had that car, and it's two other stable mates, on the rear end of our train from Portland, OR to Minneapolis, MN behind SP 4449, enroute to Train Festival in Mich., back in 2009. The car owners had Doyle and I back there for lunch, one day. Nothing like 60+ MPH, behind 4449 and a free lunch! Spectacular riding car, too.
Now THAT was what the Cal. Z was all about,,,,,,five dome cars.
