At the end (get it?), there were two Parlor-Observations (SP2951 & SP2954) and three Chair-Observations (SP2295-SP2297). The Chair-Observations were converted to 72-seat chair cars from Parlor-Observations, and were used off-and-on on the San Joaquin Daylight.
After retirement, one of the Chair-Observations was stored for years on the Stockton Terminal & Eastern along with some other ex-Daylight equipment (including one of the Baggage-Chairs).
I'll ask our resident passenger car guru about the status of the cars. Or maybe WAF knows (he's one sharp cookie!)
