Another bell ringer, there Drew.

I believe that's an eastbound CZ, correct? Well, it was in August 1969 that I took my ride on the CZ from Chicago to Middle Harbor Road. And our consist included a GN 16 duplex roomette-4 double bedroom sleeper in this position. If this is the same consist that I rode, perhaps making its return east after I came west the previous day, then the reason for that GN 16-4 Pullman is to act as a dormitory, as the CZ Cable Car Room dome-coffee shop-dorm was not in this consist, replaced with a Burlington dome coffee shop coach. (I think that was the configuration. My 1969 notebook with the consists has long since disappeared.) But I know that our CZ had that GN Pullman up front between the baggage car and first dome coach.
