I have an Official Guide from 1956 and in the Central of Georgia listing where the NANCY HANKS train is shown, there's a notation that says, "Reservations for white passengers only."
This train ran from Atlanta to Savannah --- about as deep in the South as you could get.
I've seen photos of heavyweight cars used on SP trains that were used to return illegal aliens to Mexico via the Calexico - Mexicali gateway.
