Tom, I was in Mount Vernon, the silver former Union Pacific 10-6 sleeper. It was the only car that went out on #8 that day, so there were no other cars to access. we were the last car, behind the superliners. If you look at the second picture, you can see how the MNC locomotive only has us behind it, the other cars remaining at Midway.
We did not have access to the other cars on the Westbound trip. They were a private charter.
