    Dear Mr. Pollard,

    Was there only one “Hot Springs Special” (#17) that ran between LR and HS daily? Based on the schedule that I have, I see two arrivals into HS and two departures. The No. 219 left LR at 11:25 AM and arrived in HS at 12:45, and the #17 left at 8:25 AM and arrived in HS at 10:20. Is this information accurate? Thank you again.

    Sorry, I meant the #17 from LR to HS.

    That is really good information. It helps me to understand, in a better way, how the process worked. Do you know if there were ever times, in those days, when special trains were run or special cars were added to the 817 for VIPs traveling to Hot Springs?

    Dear Bill,

    Thank you again for that clarification. This information is very helpful to me. One last question on this. What kind of amenities were available to “elite” passengers on the 17-817? You’ve already mentioned the Pullman. Any help you could give me with understanding the “experience” one would have had on the “Hot Springs Special” would be greatly appreciated.

    I can’t tell you how grateful I am for this information.

    Mr. Pollard,

    We’ve conversed a little before via Facebook. Thank you for taking the time to reply to my post. It looks like the MP #117 Lv Claremore 1215am, av LR 805am option would get someone to Little Rock just in time to catch the #817 leaving at 8:25 AM for arrival in Hot Springs at 10:20 AM. Do I have that right?
