ACL, SAL and Southern all had passenger trains that originated in the northeast and were handled by PRR to Washington.
PRR had two trains from Washington, the Federal and the Senator that were handled by the New Haven from New York to Boston. Both carrier’s equipment was used in those trains.
PRR’s Penn Texas ran from New York to St. Louis with through sleepers to San Antonio handled by the MP. MP equipment would also show up in this train east of St. Louis.
PRR’s South Wind originated in Chicago and operated over PRR to Louisville thence L&N, ACL and FEC to Miami. Equipment from the L&N, ACL and PRR, including engines, ran through over the entire route.
There were also transcontinental sleeper services offered on alternating days that had SP, UP and RI sleepers handled between Chicago and the east coast by PRR and NYC.
This is just a couple of examples.
