    Is it my imagination? Something makes me think I heard once that MP and N&W ran head end cars like baggage cars through on each other’s trains, exchanging in St. Louis maybe.

    Please confirm or refute, thanks. I have a nice Walters heavyweight N&W baggage car I’d like to put in my trains.

    Never say never, but on the trains south from St. Louis, I do not recall seeing N&W equipment in the 1960s. Its possible that the trains west, particularly the overnight mail train, might have carried N&W cars on a more regular basis, but if so, I wonder why they would not have been routed over the former Wabash line rather than MoP?
