From November 2011 Yahoo Mopac group
For those who share an appreciation for a column of faded numbers on an old train sheet, an interesting consist from January 30, 1955:
Train 221 (Pleasant Hill-Newport), arrived “W” at 1:25pm, on time.
8029 Alco PA
4153 HW baggage
2163 HW RPO-baggage
6162 HW coach
Most photo coverage of the White River Division trains show a single GP7 as power. This was one of the trips where the motive power got an “upgrade”. This consist information is from an Arkansas Division, Hoxie Subdivision trainsheet, one of the few that I’ve seen which show White River division trains between Diaz and Newport.
